It would be completely ridiculous to attempt to drive your
car without wheels.
You’d get nowhere.
Pun intended.
It is no different for the 11 different body systems you’ve
learned about at this point. All body systems are necessary, and must work
together for life to continue.
The 11 systems working together, to
create a harmonious environment is called homeostasis.
We all contribute to our body's homeostasis almost every second of every day. When you are cold, you throw on a sweatshirt. When you are thirsty, you drink water, When your bottom gets uncomfortable during a long class, you shift your weight..etc.

| (Hopefully in pursuit of homeostasis, you don't choose this sweater) |
Homeostasis is essentially the medical term that describes all organ systems working
together to keep your body balanced, healthy, and alive. When something goes
wrong and your body cannot maintain homeostasis, like if one of the systems is unable to do it’s job-
that is when you get sick or injured.
Think of it like an incredibly large orchestra, where
everyone has to play their part. If they play perfectly, like they usually do-
it’s beautiful.
(perfect, and creative, homeostasis)
When someone plays in the wrong note or tune, or when it is not their turn; the sound of the music is ruined.
(Out of homeostasis)
When someone plays in the wrong note or tune, or when it is not their turn; the sound of the music is ruined.
The amazing thing about the human body is that the systems
work so seamlessly together, that if one system goes wrong, other systems
attempt to “compensate” or fix the problem in the body for that system.
Think of it like the runner, Derek Redmond who almost made it to the finish
line after training so hard, only to tear his hamstring at the end. He was
hardwired, determined to finish, but couldn’t do it on his own (like whatever organ system that fails)- so his dad (like the other body systems) came
out of the stands to make up for what the son couldn’t do, and help him finish.
That same idea occurs in our body. For example, if our pH were
too acidic because our kidneys were not able to filter our waste out properly
or fast enough, the respiratory system would try to “compensate”, or help our
pH back to normal by breathing more rapidly to get rid of more C02, which is
also acidic.
Each system interacts with each other to maintain our homeostasis. Each system needs each other. Think of it like kids and parents. You'd like to be independent, but until you have a job- your car won't go without gas, and you can't get gas without cash! (Thanks Mom and Dad!)
Looking at the 11 systems, here is just one example per system of how we need each system like peanut butter needs jelly for a sandwich:
Without the skeletal system, we’d be a pile of non-working mush. The skeletal system is worthless though, without the muscular system to move it!
And what good would skeletal muscles (like we talked about last week) be if they didn’t have the nervous system sending them signals of what to do?
The
nervous system may seem to be the boss, but the only reason it works is because
it gets oxygen from our respiratory system, send to it via our circulatory
system.
But the lungs could not work without the lung tissue getting blood and
oxygen, which it gets from the heart, which the heart could not give if it did
not have the energy and electrolytes from the digestive system to use!
Oh, and since we need a digestive system, we also need a way to get rid of the things we don’t need that we got from the digestive system, or else the waste will build up and kill all our tissues.
Also, being that we are living organisms, bacteria and virus would overrun us with no immune system and lymphatic system to protect the other systems.
Then of course there is the simple thing of hormones like insulin, which are necessary for the regulation of many body systems.
Finally, we have the reproductive system, which, if the human race intends to continue, it probably shouldn’t be without.
Basic Kidney Filtration (if there is an issue...)
Lungs can "help out" or compensate, by exhaling more CO2

So the next time your car runs perfectly-
and is in "car homeostasis" because all the parts are working, (and your parents gave you gas money)- think about how much more complex you are, and how incredible it is that your body is for the most part, able to maintain a homeostatic balance.

1. The four main things your body must keep in balance are water, your body’s temperature, iron, and your blood sugar. If these are not at balance then you might not feel good.
ReplyDelete2. The kidneys respond by making more urine which is mostly water. The body loses water by sweating, going to the bathroom, and when we breathe out.
3. Our hands and feet feel it first because the body is trying to get your temperature back to the normal level.
4. The supply of energy for tissue is blood sugar. The pancreas monitors this supply of energy. If you have too much insulin, then you have a low blood sugar.
5. When you dilate the arteries the blood pressure increases. This affects blood delivery by delivering too much blood. When you have too much insulin it makes your blood sugar low which is not good. To get the characters to all green, I had you adjust the characters levels of homeostasis.
6. The first orchestra played the Super Mario Bros. theme song.
7. The message I got was that everything works together to maintain homeostasis. If one thing is out of line another must make up for it or something bad can happen. God gave us an amazing body that works together to do all the functions it needs too.

1. The four main things your body must keep in balance are water, salt, body temp, and blood glucose concentration.
ReplyDelete2. The kidneys respond to high levels of water in the blood plasma by producing a larger volume of urine. Three different ways we lose water is by urine, sweating, and breathing out.
3. Why your hands and feet feel it first in regards of thermoregulation is because your body works on keeping its core temperature.
4. The energy supply for tissues is glucose. The organ that monitors this energy supply is the pancreas.
5. When you dilate the arteries the blood pressure goes up. This affects your blood delivery by making it bigger. Blood glucose goes down to red if you have too much insulin. What I did to get all green indicators was I based everything on each other, seeing what needed what.
6. The first orchestra is playing Super Mario Bros. Medly.
7. What message I got from the video is that if you try you will always get to the end. Also I learned that your body does need everything to function.

A+ You got 11 correct out of 11, or 100%.
1. The four main things in our body that we must keep in balance are water content, iron content, body temperature and blood glucose concentration.
ReplyDelete2.He says that the kidneys produce a large quantity of diluted urine in response to “high levels of water in the blood plasma”. The different ways we lose water are sweating, breathing out and in our feces.
3. The author says that your “hands and feet feel it first” in regards to loss of thermoregulation was that your body works to maintain its core temperature. The bodies cells need a constant supply of energy, not to high not to low.
4. The supply of energy for the tissues is glucose. The organ that monitors this energy supply is the pancreas.
5. What happens to the blood pressure when I dilate the arteries is that the blood pressure lowers and cannot maintain homeostasis.
This affects blood delivery by increasing it and making the heart pump faster.
The blood glucose becomes normal when we have to much insulin.
I had to decrease blood delivery( to the 2nd marking), increase oxygen(to the 4th marking), increase blood pressure( to the 5th marking), decrease body temperature( to the 2nd marking) and the glucose level was in the middle to get the character to have all green indicators.

B+ You got 9 correct out of 11, or 81.8%.
1. The 4 main things he says we need for homeostasis is how much water we have, our blood glucose level, temperature, and ion content.
ReplyDelete2. When our kidneys respond to the “high levels of water in the blood plasma” it keeps the useful things and filters out the bad things and turns them into urine and we flush it down! Other ways we lose water is by sweating!
3. Our hands and feet feel it first because when we get cold our body tries to keep the core temperature and because our feet and hands are the furthest away from our core the body doesn’t try to keep them that warm.
4. The glucose is the energy for the tissue and the pancreas is the organ that releases insulin which allows the amount of glucose our body needs in our tissues to give them a good amount of energy!
5. When you dilate the arteries the blood pressure goes down. When you put too much insulin in the glucose level goes way up! To maintain all green and keep the person alive you have to: you have to have a good heart rate, good respiration, good blood pressure, enough perspiration, and a good blood sugar level!
6. The first orchestra is playing the Super Mario Bro’s theme song!
7. The message was if you don’t quit you can’t fail!
1. The four main things your body must keep in balance is water content, iron content, body temperature, and blood glucose concentration.
ReplyDelete2. What the video said about what the kidneys do to high levels of water in the blood plasma is by making a lot of urine which also makes it thinner. The author says we lose water by urinating and sweating.
3. The author says your hands and feet feel it first because the body works to maintain its core temperature in regards to thermoregulation.
4. The video says that the supply of energy for the tissue comes from glucose.
5. When you dilate the arteries the blood pressure goes down. Dilating the arteries makes the blood delivery increase. The blood glucose is to low when you have to much insulin. To get the person to all green you have to make heart rate lowest, respiration one away from full, dilation full, perspiration at the lowest, and blood sugar right in the middle.
6. The song the orchestra is playing is Super Mario Bros.
7. The message beyond compensation that you can take from the running video is that we need to finish everything we do even when obstacles get in your way and do it to the best of your ability.
1. The four main things that he says your body must keep in balance are water content, ion content, body temperature and blood glucose concentration.
ReplyDelete2. The guy in the video says that the kidneys respond to high levels of water in the blood plasma by producing a larger volume of urine, which is also more dilute. A few ways to lose water are from going to the bathroom, breathing and sweating.
3. The author says this because he means that when you get cold, your hands and your feet are the first parts of your body to get cold.
4. The supply of energy for the tissues is glucose. The pancreas monitors the energy
supply.
5. As you dilate the arteries, the blood pressure of the person decreases. The blood delivery becomes higher as you do this. The glucose level becomes lower and lower when you have too much insulin. To get the character to all green indicators, you have to keep on changing heart rate, respiration, dilation, perspiration and blood sugar.
6. The song in the first video is the Mario Bros. Theme.
7. The message besides compensation that I got from the running video was that you should never give up.
8. The first time I got a C, second B and third I got one hundred percent.
1. He says we need to keep our water content, ion content, temperature, and blood sugar levels balanced.
ReplyDelete2. Kidneys make more urine in response to a lot of water. Also, your pee becomes more dilute, or watered down. We lose water through breathing (think fogging up a window), pooping, and sweating.
3. He says our hands and feet feel it most, because the blood is being taken away and maintaining the most important organs. Also, they’re the farthest away from our body, so it’s harder to keep up the heat there.
4. Glucose, better known as sugar, supplies energy. Your pancreas controls the levels of glucose so you get enough when you’re exercising.
5. Your blood pressure goes down when you dilate the arteries, because your blood has more room to flow. Your blood delivery increases when you do that. When you increase insulin, your blood sugar need goes down. I had to balance the indicators by increasing breathing when she was running, along with sweat when she was hot.
6. They are playing the Super Mario Bros tune!
7. When you try, no matter how hard it is, it is possible. You can do amazing things when you work at it.
8. I got 7 out of 11 right, or a 63%....
1. He says you need to keep your water content, iron content, body temperature, and blood sugar concentration in balance.
ReplyDelete2. In response to "high levels of water in the blood plasma", the kidneys produce a greater amount of more-diluted urine than water. We also lose water in our feces, and by breathing and sweating.
3. he says that our "hands and feet feel it first" in regards to thermoregulation because it's more important for the body itself to maintain its core temperature, meaning the extremities such as the hands and feet are the first to lose heat.
4. The supply of energy for the tissues is glucose, or sugar. The pancreas monitors this energy supply.
5. When I dilate the arteries, the blood pressure lowers, making blood delivery higher. When you have too much insulin, the blood glucose lowers. To get the character to all green indicators, I had to figure out which sliders affected what levels in the body, and only manipulate the sliders that didn't affect the already green levels.
6. The first orchestra is playing a medley of music from Super Mario Bros., specifically the Overworld, Underwater, and Underground themes.
7. In the running video, you can also get the message that a father's love for his child will push him to get by any barrier to help his son.
1. The things in your body need to be balanced are water content, iron content, blood glucose content, and body temperature.
ReplyDelete2. Kidneys produce urine in response to high levels of water in the blood plasma. We lose water by breathing out, and sweating.
3. Our hands and feet feel loss of thermoregulation first because of the body works to remain a regular core temperature.
4. The supply of energy to the tissues is glucose and insulin. The pancreas is the organ that monitors the energy supply.
5. Your blood pressure lowers when you dilate the arteries. This affects the blood circulation by slowing it down. If you have too much insulin the blood glucose level goes down. I had to continually check all the parts to maintain homeostasis.
6. The first orchestra is playing Super Mario Bros.
7. The message beyond compensation in the running video is that if we do not give up, then we do not fail.
1.In the first video, the four things that he says that your body must keep in balance are: salt, glucose, body temperature, and water.
ReplyDelete2.In response to high levels of water in the blood plasma, our kidneys will produce a larger, more watered down, volume of urine. The different ways in which we lose water are by using the bathroom, in both ways, breathing out, and sweating.
3.In regards to the loss of thermoregulation, our hands and feet feel the cold first because our body is working more on keeping the middle of our body warm, because that is where all of our vital organs are, and to keep them functioning, they have to be warm.
4.According to the video, glucose is the energy supplier for our tissues, and the pancreas is the organ that monitors the level of glucose in our bodies.
5.When you dilate the arteries, the blood pressure decreases. Since dilating the arteries decreases the blood pressure, it affects the blood delivery by not delivering as much blood throughout the body. When you have too much insulin, the blood glucose level decreases. In order to get the character to all green indicators, I had to maintain homeostasis by increasing and decreasing the heart rate, blood sugar, perspiration, respiration, and blood pressure. I changed the amount of how much I put into the body according to the other levels and how they reacted to the initial change I made, because all of those aspects work together in some way.
6.The first orchestra is playing The Super Mario Brothers theme song.
7.From that running video, you get the message that it said, “When you don’t give up, you can’t fail,” which I think is true, because failing would be to give up, and you might fall along the way, but as long as you do not give up, you’ll never fail, you can only get better.

1. My top four values in life are simple, have a strong relationship with Christ, do my very best in school, improve in my guitar playing and keeping music in my life, and finally do everything to the best of my ability. If I do all of these things, there’s no telling what I can accomplish in life.
2. People can tell that these are things that I value because I am always talking about guitars and music; it’s really the only think I ever think about. If someone were to evaluate my life they would find that most of my free time is spent practicing guitar. Also I try to keep a strong relationship with god by going to church often. Now I’ll admit that my family has spent the last couple months trying different churches. We haven’t quite settled at a good church we all really liked since we moved here, but we are really trying to find a good church. Also I do try everything to the best of my ability. I may not be good at certain things, and struggle to accomplish things, but I really do try to succeed at the things I do.
3. If you don’t value anything you have nothing to live for, and people who have nothing to live for may become depressed. Depression can be unhealthy physically and mentally, because people who are depressed think no one loves them, and they have nothing to live for. It can be physically unhealthy because most depressed people don’t get out of bed for days on end, and don’t eat anything, and that being, they don’t get the exercise and nourishment they need. Also I have seen posters in classrooms that say,’ if you stand for nothing you’ll fall for anything. And if that is true it could lead to a path of wrong choices and destruction.
4. Values and decision making are related because they could both change the course of your life. If you don’t have values you have nothing to stand for. Also if you make the wrong decisions you could potentially ruin your life.
5. Coronary heart disease is when there’s a plaque build up in your arteries preventing the needed flow of oxygen rich blood to the heart. Plaque is a substance made of fat and cholesterol and other things found in blood. There is also cardiovascular risk which causes 1.2 million heart attacks each year.

3) Because the ends of our limbs are our hands and feet.
4) The energy supply for tissues is protein.
5) The blood pressure gets higher. To much insulin make low glucose. To make the character live you had to find homeostasis.
6) Mario!
7) Don’t stop believing and never give up and finish what you started.

1. The four main things your body must keep in balance are water content, iron content, body temperature, and blood glucose concentration.
ReplyDelete2. In response to high levels of water in the blood plasma, the kidneys produce a lot more urine than usual, which- as the host says- is more dilute. There are more ways to lose water though. The author/ host also says that we can lose water by breathing out and by sweating!
3. The author says that when our body is cold, our hands and our feet feel it first. This is because our body is always working on keeping our core temperature balanced.
4. The supply of energy for the tissues is glucose. The pancreas monitors this supply of energy.
5. When you dilate the arteries, blood pressure is reduced. This affects blood delivery by causing less blood to flow through the body. If too much blood pressure is occurring, blood will pump much faster. When you have too much insulin, blood glucose moves into more cells and reduces the blood glucose level.
6. The song the first orchestra is playing is the Super Mario Bros. theme song!
7. The message I get from this video is that the orchestra is very well put together in rhythm and sound. Unlike the second orchestra just playing around with their instruments and creating a lack of order.
8. The first time I took this quiz, I did not get a 100%, but the second time I took it, I did get a 100%.
1) Water content, Iron content, body temperature, blood glucose concentration.
ReplyDelete2) We urinate. There is more urine, and it is more dilute. You loose water when you urinate, in your fecies, and when you breathe out (Didn't know that) :) &Sweating.
3) Because the body works to maintain its core temperature.
4) Insulin
5) The blood pressure goes through the roof! the blood delivery is slowed down, and constricted. The blood glucose gets way too high. You have to create homeostasis&make sure everything is balances. It was kind of like a rubix cube, one thing may work out, but the other part may be negativley influenced by it. You have to keep all parts in mind to keep homeostasis.
6) Super Mario Brother's Theme song! :)
7) I think we're supposed to write something about health (duh) So I learned, always treat your body right, and take care of it, its easy to hurt yourself, but what I REALLY learned was how much family is there to support you, even when you mess up. Video made me cry :(

1) Water content, ion content, body temperature, and blood glucose concentration.
2) By producing a larger volume of urine. Lose water when you breathe out, in your feces, and sweat.
3) Because the body works to maintain its core temperature.
4) Glucose is they supply for tissues. The pancreas monitors the energy for the tissues.
5) Blood pressure becomes really low when you dilate the arteries. Less blood is able to flow. Her blood sugar is too low when there is too much insulin. Balance all systems out.
6) Super Mario Bros. Medley.
7) That you need to stretch and loosen your muscles before you do a physical activity.
8) A+ You got 11 correct out of 11, or 100%. (4th try)
1. Visit the first link on homeostasis (the one leading to the guy with the british accent). What are the main four things he says your body must keep in balance?
ReplyDelete1.Temperature 2.blood glucose 3.water balance 4.salt level.
2. In that same video, what does he say the kidneys do in response to "high levels of water in the blood plasma"? What are different ways that the author says we lose water?
If we have high levels of water. Kidney makes urine for our body. Kidney controls osmotic. Sweat is other way to lose water.
3. Why does the author say that your "hands and feet feel it first" in regards to loss of thermoregulation?
When our body is very cold. Our hands and feet feel it first. because body wants to maintain body temperature.
4. According to the video, what is the supply of energy for the tissues? Which organ monitors this energy supply?
Glucose is the supply of energy for the tissues. Pancreas is to monitors and control energy supply.
5. Go to the link, "Cannot maintain homeostasis" and play the game. What happens to blood pressure when you dilate the arteries? How does this affect blood delivery? What happens to blood glucose when you have too much insulin? What did you have to do to get the character to all green indicators?
when my dilate the arteries. My blood pressure is high blood pressure. High blood pressure makes heart disease and high blood pressure is problem of blood delivery. If we have too much insulin, we lack blood glucose. We make balance of character.
6. What song is the first orchestra playing?
Super Mario Theme Song
7. What message beyond compensation can you take from the running video?
Don't give up
8. Lastly, click on the "coordination of all 11 systems" link and take the test. Print your results the first go round, or take it enough times to get 100% and print your results.
Harmonious Homeostasis
ReplyDelete1.The four basic things that the body needs to keep in balance are water content, iron content, temperature, and blood sugar concentration.
2.The kidneys make a larger amount of urine when there is excess blood plasma. And we lose water by urine, breathing, and sweat.
3.When it comes to heat your hands and feet feel it first because your body is working to maintain a core temperature.
4.The glucose is the energy supply for the tissues and the pancreas is the organ that monitors this.
5.Low blood pressure occurs when you dilate the arteries and it slows blood delivery. Your blood glucose gets too low when you have too much insulin. You have to maintain homeostasis to get the character to green indicators.
6.The song the orchestra is playing is Super Mario Bros. Medley.
7.When you tear you hamstring it ceases your leg.
8.Quiz Results A+ You got 11 correct out of 11, or 100%.
1. The four main things the British guy says your body needs to keep in balance are water content, ion content, body temperature, and glucose concentration.
ReplyDelete2. What the kidneys do in response to “high levels of water in the blood plasma” is that they produce a larger volume of urine, which is also more dilute. The author says we lose water by sweating, releasing urine, and when you breathe out ___?___ (I couldn’t understand what he said… kind of sounded like “feces” but that wouldn’t make sense).
3. The author says your “hands and feet feel it first” in regards to loss of thermoregulation because the body is working to maintain its core temperature.
4. Glucose is the supply of energy for the tissues, which is monitored by the pancreas.
5. The blood pressure become extremely low the more you dilate the arteries. This affects blood delivery by making it very difficult to distribute throughout the body. Your glucose level becomes very low when you have too much insulin. I had to get the character to maintain homeostasis to get the character to have all green indicators.
6. The song the first orchestra is playing is the theme song to Super Mario Brothers.
7. The message you can take away from the running video is to never give up and to not accept failure. Also, sometimes you need a helping hand to finish what you started.
8. I got 6 out of 11 correct and could not print the results.
1.The four things that our body needs to keep in balance are the amount of water in the body, the glucose concentration (which is basically blood sugar), the amount of ions, and the body’s temperature.
ReplyDelete2. When our kidneys sense that there is too much water in our blood, they create large amounts of urine. You lose water every time you exhale, and every time you go to the bathroom. You also lose water when you sweat.
3. When the body’s temperature is not normal, you notice in your hands and feet because your body wants to maintain the temperature at its core. The temperature of the hands and feet are less important.
4.The supply of energy for tissues is glucose, otherwise known as sugar. The pancreas monitors the supply of glucose in the blood stream.
5. When you dilate the arteries in the game, the blood pressure drops and the blood delivery rises. When you have too much insulin, the amount of glucose in the blood drops. I got the character in all green areas once for a couple of seconds, and then she decided to go to sleep which apparently changed everything. Then she died.
6. The orchestra was playing a mashup of multiple songs. Some of them were from mario definitely, but a few I wasn’t sure about.
7.The message I got from the running video was that if you injure yourself in front of thousands of people, finish in last place with the help of a parent, you become an inspiration to millions. An alternative message would be to never give up.
1. Four things in your body that needs to be balanced are water, sugar, body temperature, and glucose.
ReplyDelete2. In the video it said the kidneys respond to high levels of water in the blood plasma by making you go to the bathroom. Some different ways we lose water is by sweating, going to the bathroom and breathing.
3. Your hands and feet get colder first because your body works to keep the core warm to keep its normal body temperature.
4. In the video it says the supply of energy for tissues is glucose. The organ that monitors the glucose is supplied by the pancreas.
5. When the blood pressure is dilated the arteries get smaller. It affects the body delivery by increasing the blood pressure. When the blood glucose has too much insulin the blood sugar gets low. In the game to get the characters to have all green indicators is by getting the heart rate, respiration, perspiration, blood pressure, and blood sugar to where it is needed. The body is constantly changing so the systems in you body must change to stay balanced.
6. The song that they where playing was Super Mario Brothers.
7. When I saw the video I thought of how thankful I am for my parents and how the body takes care of itself by replacing cells when they are needed.
1. The guy in this video explains very well four things your body needs to keep in balance and they are: water content, iron content, body temperature, and blood/glucose concentration.
ReplyDelete2. In this video he explains that when there is a high level of water in the blood plasma the kidneys respond by producing a larger volume of urine which is also more dilute. The author tells us there are multiple ways to lose water and these ways include: breathing out, urinating, and sweating.
3. The author says that when you are cold “your hands and feet feel it first”, this is because when you are cold all the heat in your body is focused on your core where all your organs are. Your hands and feet are farthest from your core.
4. According to the video the supply of energy for the tissue comes from glucose. The pancreas is the organ that monitors and controls the supply of energy for the tissue.
5. In the game when I dilate the arteries the blood pressure decreases. When the arteries are dilated they are restricted and the blood cannot flow at a normal rate. When you have too much insulin your glucose level decreases. In order to get all of the components in a green indicator you must change other things.
6. The orchestra is playing the super Mario bros theme song.
7. The message I received from the running video was to never give up and to finish the task ahead of you even if you can’t do it your best.
8. I got a 6 out of 11 or a 54.5%.
1. The four main parts are water content, ion content, body temperature, blood glucose concentration.
ReplyDelete2. The kidneys produce a large volume of urine. When you breathe and when you sweat.
3. He says it because your body works to maintain a constant body temperature.
4. The supply of energy is glucose and the pancreas monitors the supply.
5. The blood pressure gets lower. It won’t let blood get through. It brings it down. The heart rate has to be in the middle and the dilation has to be the 4th box from the left. Respiration has to be the 2nd from the left. And the blood sugar has to be in the middle.
6. They were playing the Super Mario theme song.
7. I see that God has a plan for every one and just because you’re a top prospect doesn’t mean you don’t need to train.
1) The 4 main things he said our body must have to keep in balance is water content, body temperature, iron content and blood glucose concentration.
ReplyDelete2) The kidneys that respond to high levels of water in the blood plasma by producing a larger volume of urine, that which is also more dilute. We lose water by breathing out, and sweat.
3) Your hands and feet feel it first because our body works to maintain its core temperature.
4) The supply of energy for tissues is glucose. The organ that monitors the energy supply is the pancreas.
5) The results I got for dilating the arteries is it makes you feel better for a short period of time. The results for what happens to the glucose when you have too much insulation is you feel worse than before. What you have to do to get the character all green is have everything even and equal to fit the body.
6) The first orchestra is playing super mario brothers medley.
7) What I took from the running video is no matter how much pain you are in, he still had the strength to move on and finish what he started. He never planned that to happen but most times you don't see it coming, but no matter what happens, someone will be there to pick you back up and finish strong like what the man's father did.
1. Water content, water content, iron content, and blood glucose concentration
ReplyDelete2. They make urine to expel waste, we lose water from heat, exercise, salt intake, and removing liquids
3. Your body starts to lose warmth in the extremities.
4. Glucose is the source for maintaining energy in the tissue the main organ that regulates is the pancreas
5. It decreases the blood pressure, it increases blood delivery really high, when u have too much insulin glucose level rises, to make the girl from dying I put all indicators in the middle.
6. Super Mario brothers theme song
7. That when someone messes up the whole band looks bad and messes up.
8. I got a C on the quiz.
Harmonious Homeostasis
ReplyDelete1. Four main things that the body must constantly keep in balance are the following: water levels, ions, temperature, and blood glucose concentration.
2. In response to high levels of water in the blood plasma, kidneys produce a larger amount of urine, which is also a lot thinner. In contrast, we lose water levels by sweating, breathing, and urinating.
3. When we are cold, our hands and feet feel it first due to the body working to maintain its stable temperature.
4. Glucose is the energy supply for tissues, and the pancreas monitors how much of that supply is used.
5. On the second link, there was a game that impelled me to keep a human body’s internal environment stable with little levers that controlled glucose, blood pressure, (etc.). When I dilated the arteries, the blood pressure suddenly went down. This obviously affected the blood delivery by slowing it down and causing pain. The same thing happens to blood glucose when there’s too much insulin-it gets really low. I now understand how hard the body works every second of every day. Just to get the character to stay on all green indicators was extremely difficult if you didn’t pay enough attention or constantly readjust the levels.
6. The first orchestra is playing the Super Mario Brothers theme song.
7. The message I can take beyond compensation from the running video is that when someone, or something, breaks down, it needs to be picked back up to keep going and to never give up on its driven purpose. Even though they started that race alone, doesn’t mean that they won’t need someone there to help them get through it.
1. Four main things that the British guy says that the body must keep in balance are: iron content, body temperature, water content, blood glucose concentration or a good level of insulin.
ReplyDelete2. The British guy says that the kidneys to high levels of water in the blood plasma by producing more urine, which is more diluted. Different ways the author says that the body loses water are: when you breathe out, when you sweat, and when you use the restroom.
3. The British guy says that we feel a gain or loss in temperature more quickly in the hands or feet because the body makes sure to maintain its core temperature.
4. The video says that supply of energy for the tissues is glucose. The organ that controls glucose levels is the pancreas.
5. When I dilated the arteries the blood pressure went way down. This affected blood delivery by making it go really high. When you give too much insulin the blood glucose level goes so low you die. To get all of the things green you have to increase heart rate and decrease respiration, increase dilation then decrease heart rate and increase respiration.
6. The first orchestra is playing the super Mario bros theme song.
7. As an athlete I can watch that video and take away many themes. One is never give up and another is stretch.
8. Quiz Results C- You got 6 correct out of 11, or 54.5%
1. He says what you need to have balanced is your water in your body, your ion, your body temperature and you blood glucose.
ReplyDelete2. He says that to get rid of high waters in the blood plasma is we produce a big amount of urine. Other ways we get rid of water is my temperature or when we breathe out.
3. Our hands and feet feel it first because we try to keep the core the warmest.
4. Your energy comes from your glucose level.
5. The blood pressure when I dilate the arties gets lower and the blood delivery was too high. When you have too much insulin in your body your glucose is to low. For me to have them all neutral I had my heart rate increased by 1, my respiration decreased by 1, my blood pressure neutral, my respiration increased by 1 and my glucose neutral.
6. The first song was super Mario bros.
7. From running the super Mario bros one is that I don’t know what it had to do with health.
8.
1. The 4 things your body must keep in balance with is Water, ions, temperature and glucose in blood.
ReplyDelete2. What I learned is that when the kidneys have too much water in the blood the kidneys release urine. We lose water by peeing and sweating
3. You’re hands and feet would get frostbite first because your body is trying to heat up you’re core.
4. The supply of energy for tissue is glucose and the pancreas monitors how much is released.
5. When you enlarge the artery’s you don’t sweat as much and more blood flows throw your body and when you increase the insulin the glucose goes down. To make the girl feel go you had to maintain homoeostasis/ internal balance
6. The orchestra was playing Super Mario bros theme song.
7. What I think the video was saying was don’t give up.
1.The four things he says our body needs to keep in balance are water content, iron content, body temperature, and blood glucose concentrations.
ReplyDelete2.The kidneys respond to “high levels of water in the blood plasma” by producing more urine. Other ways we lose water is by breathing out and sweating.
3.Our “hands and feet feel it first” because the body works to maintain its core temperature. It does this because the more important organs in our body are located towards the body’ core.
4.The supply of energy for the tissues is glucose. Glucose is just a fancy word for sugar. The organ that monitors this energy supply is the pancreas.
5.When you dilate the arteries, they become bigger, and then the blood temperature goes down. This affects the blood delivery because it cannot move through the body properly. When you have to much insulin the blood glucose is broken down too much and thus unusable. In order to get the character to all the green indicators you have to get everything in harmony with one another and kill the girl a few times.
6.The song the first orchestra is playing is the Super Mario Bors. Melody. This song is awesome!
7.The message I took from the running video is giving up is worse than coming in last place. Even though everyone would have just accepted him giving up and failing it’s what most people would have done he chose not to give up. Then his father came and helped him. Just like in our body how when one system fails another system may try and pick up the slack or help the failing system. This video was such a great encouragement and yes in class I tried hard not to cry.
8.I scored a hundred percent but sadly couldn’t figure out how to attach it to this comment.
1. The four things that our bodies must keep in balance are the body’s temperature, the amount of water, glucose concentration, and iron content.
ReplyDelete2. What kidneys do in response to “high levels of water in the blood plasma” is they produce a lot of watered down urine, and one way we can lose water is by sweating.
3. What the author means when he says our “hands and feet feel it first” is our bodies are trying to get back to the normal temperature, and our hands and feet are farthest away from the center, or warmest part of our bodies.
4. The supply of energy for the tissues is glucose, which the pancreas monitors.
5. When the arteries are dilated, the blood pressure is lowered, so it doesn’t keep homeostasis, and because of this, not enough blood is created. When you have too much insulin, blood glucose goes far up. To make all the areas green, I had to keep experimenting and changing all of the factors until it worked.
6. The orchestra is playing the song from Super Mario Brothers.
7. The message I got from the video is you should never give up, and our whole body works together to maintain homeostasis.
8. A+ You got 11 correct out of 11, or 100%
1. We must have water, salt, a constant, normal body temperature, and glucose.
ReplyDelete2. “The kidney’s response to high levels of water in the blood plasma by producing a larger volume of urine, which is also more dilute.”-1:40-1:43. Urinating, sweating, breathing out, and when making bowel movements.
3. Our bodies want to keep the heat in the vital organs.
4. Glucose is the supply for energy and the pancreas monitors the glucose level.
5. When dilating the blood pressure decreases. Not enough gets around. It is lowered. To maintain homeostasis had to keep everything balanced.
6. The Orchestra played Super Mario Bros. Medley

The four main things your body needs to keep in balance is first water, salts, temperature, and glucose.
He says that just means that you need to use the restroom. Ways we lose water is by urine, sweating, and when you breathe out.
He says this because the body works to maintain your core temperature.
The supply of energy for the tissues is glucose. The pancreas monitors this energy supply.
The blood pressure goes up when you dilate the arteries. This affects your blood delivery by making it bigger. If you have too much insulin then the blood glucose goes down to red. What I did to get all green indicators was I based everything on each other, seeing what needed what
6. The first band is playing super Mario bros.
7. What I can take from this is that when you don’t give up you can’t fail.
8. I received a 100% on my 5th try but I couldn’t print it out because I don’t have a printer.
1. The man in the video said that the four main things our body needs to keep in balance are the amount of water, iron, and sugar in our body, and body temperature.
ReplyDelete2. He says that our body reacts to high amounts of water in our blood by producing a larger, more dilute amount of urine. We lose water by breathing out, peeing, pooping, and sweating.
3. Our hands are more likely to start feeling the effects of frostbite sooner because our body is working to hard to keep our core warm (head, chest, abdomen, etc.)
4. Glucose, or sugar, is the energy supply for the body. Your pancreas monitors and regulates your glucose levels.
5. When the arteries are dilated, the blood pressure gets lower and the blood delivery goes up. Too much insulin lowers your glucose levels and can be fatal. Too maintain homeostasis, I had to increase some things and decrease others. When something affected something else, I had to increase or decrease that thing until everything was at a healthy level/rate.
6. The first orchestra played "Ground Theme" by Koji Kondo. This song is commonly referred to as "The Super Mario Bros. theme song" for its debut in the game "Super Mario Bros." for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1985. Super Mario Bros. has twice been named the number one game of all time by IGN.
7. In a non-health perspective, the video's message is to never quit. Always give it your best no matter how hard it may be. If you do that, there will always be someone there to help you.
