Relationships between Anatomy and Physiology
• Anatomy
• Gross anatomy, or macroscopic anatomy, examines
large, visible structures
• Surface anatomy: exterior features
• Regional anatomy: body areas
• Systemic anatomy: organ systems
• Developmental anatomy: from conception to death
• Clinical anatomy: medical specialties

Relationships between Anatomy and Physiology
• Physiology
• Cell physiology: processes within and between cells

• Systemic physiology: functions of an organ system
• Pathological physiology: effects of diseases

1-6 Homeostasis
• Homeostasis
• All body systems working together to maintain a
stable internal environment
• Systems respond to external and internal changes
to function within a normal range (body
temperature, fluid balance)
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
1-6 Homeostasis
• Mechanisms of Regulation
• Autoregulation (intrinsic)
• Automatic response in a cell, tissue, or organ to some
environmental change
• Extrinsic regulation
• Responses controlled by nervous and endocrine
systems
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
1-6 Homeostasis
• Receptor
• Receives the stimulus
• Control center
• Processes the signal and sends instructions
• Effector
• Carries out instructions

In response to input from a receptor (a thermometer), a thermostat
(the control center) triggers an effector response (either an air conditioner or a heater) that restores normal temperature. In this case,
when room temperature rises above the set point, the thermostat
turns on the air conditioner, and the temperature returns to normal.

1-7 Negative and Positive Feedback
• The Role of Negative Feedback
• The response of the effector negates the stimulus
• Body is brought back into homeostasis
• Normal range is achieved

Events in the regulation of body temperature, which are
comparable to those shown in Figure 1−2. A control center
in the brain (the hypothalamus) functions as a thermostat
with a set point of 37°C. If body temperature exceeds
37.2°C, heat loss is increased through enhanced blood flow
to the skin and increased sweating.

The thermoregulatory center keeps

between 36.7 and 37.2°C.
1-7 Negative and Positive Feedback
• The Role of Positive Feedback
• The response of the effector increases change of the
stimulus
• Body is moved away from homeostasis
• Normal range is lost
• Used to speed up processes

Chemicals
Chemicals
Damage to cells in the
blood vessel wall releases
chemicals that begin the
process of blood clotting.
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
The chemicals start chain
reactions in which cells,
cell fragments, and
soluble proteins in the
blood begin to form a clot.
As clotting continues,
each step releases
chemicals that further
accelerate the process.
Blood clot
This escalating process
is a positive feedback
loop that ends with the
formation of a blood clot,
which patches the vessel
wall and stops the bleeding.
1-7 Negative and Positive Feedback
• Systems Integration
• Systems work together to maintain homeostasis
• Homeostasis is a state of equilibrium
• Opposing forces are in balance
• Dynamic equilibrium — continual adaptation
• Physiological systems work to restore balance
• Failure results in disease or death
