in the environment
2: a control center-which receives and process the information from the receptor
3: an effector-which responds to signals from the control center by either opposing or enhancing the
stimulus
specialized group of cells with similar structure and functions are: - ANSWER: tissues

epigastric region

-maintaining a dynamic(active) equilibrium(balance
if the body loses homeostasis, illness or even death will occur
explain the process of homeostasis through both negative and positive - ANSWER: negative feedback:
when the effector opposes the stimulus(such as dropping temperature and reverse the direction of
change, causing the temperature to rise
positive feedback:
when the effector reinforce the stimulus (such as uterine contraction during childbirth which triggers
the release of the hormone oxytocin and amplifies the direction of change, causing even greater
contractions and more release of oxytocin
, the most extreme example of anatomical variation is called - ANSWER: situs versus-in this inherited
