Bios251 discussion - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Congratulations on successfully finishing the last of the A&P series! Over the course of the last eight weeks we've discussed the anatomy and physiology of the Digestive, Urinary, and Reproductive systems. We also discussed nutrition, metabolism, human development, and genetics. And since we began our study of the human body in BIOS251, we have continuously referred to a unifying theme in Anatomy and Physiology; that is, the relationship between structure and function. The idea that "form foll...

● What does the term homeostasis mean? ● What types of mechanisms are used by the body to maintainhomeostasis? ● Give an example of the mechanisms. ● What happens when homeostasis can not berestored?

Initial Post Instructions We all have read about low carbohydrate, high protein, low cholesterol, and low-fat diets. And we understand the importance of maintaining a well-balanced diet. Or do we? To understand the role of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins and their importance in maintaining overall health, let's discuss the molecular structure of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins, and how their structures are related to their overall function.
