1The homeostatic theory states that every [blank_start]regulatory[blank_end] mechanism of the body exists to [blank_start]maintain[blank_end] the constancy of the body's [blank_start]internal[blank_end] fluid environment.
- Aregulatory
- Bmaintain
- Cinternal
- Dexternal
2(Select the correct statements.)
ECF composition is regulated in multicellular organisms because:- A1/3 of total body water is in the ECF.
- BCell membranes are semi-permeable and the concentration of components in the ECF influences the ICF, and so the internal environment of cells.
3Fill in the normal reference ranges.
- Core body temperature = [blank_start]35[blank_end] - [blank_start]38[blank_end] degrees celsius.
- Fraction of body water content in ICF = [blank_start]2/3[blank_end], and so ECF = [blank_start]1/3[blank_end]. (4/5 of this is [blank_start]interstitial[blank_end] fluid, 1/5 of this is [blank_start]plasma[blank_end].)
- Na+ conc. in ECF = [blank_start]135[blank_end] - [blank_start]145[blank_end] mmol/L.
- Ca++ conc. in plasma = [blank_start]2.2[blank_end] - [blank_start]2.6[blank_end] mmol/L
- Glucose conc. in blood = [blank_start]3.5[blank_end] - [blank_start]6[blank_end] mmol/L while fasting, 3.5 - [blank_start]8[blank_end] mmol/L non fasting.
- K+ conc. in ECF = [blank_start]3.5[blank_end] - [blank_start]5[blank_end] mmol/L.- A35
- B38
- C2/3
- D1/3
- Einterstitial
- Fplasma
- G135
- H145
- I2.2
- J2.6
- K3.5

- N3.5

4Osmosis is the movement of water toward a region of [blank_start]high[blank_end] concentration of [blank_start]solute[blank_end], or from a high water concentration to a low water concentration.
[blank_start]Osmolarity[blank_end] is a measure of the total number of solute [blank_start]particles[blank_end] per [blank_start]litre[blank_end] of solution. For body cells this is 275 - 300 mosmol/L, in the ECF and ICF.
[blank_start]Tonicity[blank_end] refers to the effect that a solution's osmolarity has on cell [blank_start]volume[blank_end].- Ahigh
- Blow
- Csolute
- Dparticles
- Elitre
- FTonicity
- Gvolume
- HOsmolarity
5Normal RMP (resting membrane potential) is:
- A-70mV, if the outside of the cell is taken as 0.
- B-70mV, if the inside of the cell is taken as 0.
6The main determinant of RMP (resting membrane potential) is:
- AK+, as it has the highest permeability of ions.
- BCa++, as it controls electrical impulses and therefore contractions in muscles.
7The RMP of cells remains constant.
- AVerdadeiro
- BFalso
8Which statement about reference (normal) ranges is incorrect?
- AReference range values are specific to age group, and values within two standard deviations of the mean are considered normal.
- BBy chance, 5% of tests outside this range are from healthy people.
- CIntra-individual variation is normal, but inter-individual is not.
- DBoth inter-individual and intra-individual variation are normal.
9Choose the correct statements about feedback systems.
- APositive feedback systems are the most helpful to maintaining homeostasis.
- BNegative feedback systems oppose change to regulated variables.
- CFeed-forward system responses can be behavioural or physiological.
- DThe sensor and integrator of a system can be the same cell.
- EA good example of a negative feedback system is childbirth, specifically oxytocin release due to stretch which triggers more contractions.
10Choose the two physiological communication pathways, and their appropriate timings.
- ANeuronal for quick responses, hormonal for slow responses.
- BNeuronal for slow responses, hormonal for quick responses.
- CFeed-forward for quick responses, feedback for slow responses.
11Which method of heat loss is still effective when the environment is hotter than the body.
- AEvaporation
- BRadiation
- CConvection
- DConduction
12[blank_start]Vasodilation[blank_end] allows more blood to the skin and so allows more heat [blank_start]loss[blank_end]. [blank_start]Piloerection[blank_end] diverts more blood to the visceral organs and so aids heat [blank_start]retention[blank_end].
- AVasodilation
- BPiloerection
- Closs
- Dretention
13In anatomical position the palms face backward.
- AVerdadeiro
- BFalso
14Which statement is false?
- AAnterior is opposite to superior.
- BInferior means below something, superior means above something.
- CMedial means closer to the saggital median line, lateral means further away from it.
- DDistal is opposite to proximal.
- ESuperficial means closer to the surface.

- Descrição
- Objectives: Define ‘homeostasis’ and explain why extracellular fluid (ECF) composition is regulated in multicellular organisms. • Define ‘osmosis’, ‘osmolarity’ and ‘tonicity’ and understand their relevance to cell volume • Understand the basis of the cell’s ‘resting membrane potential’ and appreciate its physiological significance.
