Structure & Function
● at every level of organization,
we see that “form fits function”
EXAMPLES:
● RIBCAGE: shape fits the
function of support &
protection of the organs in the
thoracic cavity
● SMALL INTESTINE: structure
fits the function of digestion &
absorption of nutrients

• What is a TISSUE?
Tissues are groups of cells with
specialized structural and functional roles.
Intercellular materials, varying from solid
to liquid, separate cells.
(also known as MATRIX)

3 Components of a feedback
system:
• Control center:
processes
information it
receives from
the receptor
(brain,
hypothalamus)

3 Components of a feedback
system:
• Effector: receives
a message from
the control center
and responds
appropriately
(muscles
shivering,
goosebumps)

NEGATIVE FEEDBACK
• Example
Negative feedback: body temperature
(needs to stay around 37°C)
rise in brain message to body temp.
temp. “thermostat” sweat glands lowers
to produce
sweat
**Negative feedback maintains HOMEOSTASIS!

POSITIVE FEEDBACK
• Example
Positive feedback:
childbirth (body needs
to achieve a heightened
state of exertion…
LABOR!)
pressure uterine more more
of baby’s contractions pressure contractions…..
