In Roiger/Bullock, connections are made between systems sothat students learn how the body functions normally in homeostasis, and howdisruption of homeostasis leads to disease and disorder. With a straightforwardwriting style that engages the reader directly, the authors explain difficultconcepts in the context of routine activities, making concepts easier to grasp.A completely revised art program makes the content more inviting and facilitatesstudent comprehension. Measureable learning outcomes throughout the textbook,workbook, and digital learning and assessment program help direct studentsthrough the content so that there are no surprises. Anatomy & PhysiologyREVEALED icons indicate correlations throughout each chapter to relevant APRimages and content.

B) secretion of insulin in response to increased blood glucose

C) secretion of glucagon in response to decreased blood glucose

D) uterine contractions in response to the pressure of the baby’s head on the cervix

Answer: D

Explanation: As the fetus reaches full term, its head pushes on the cervix. The increased pressure on the cervix causes the cervix to release prostaglandins, which cause the uterus to contract, moving away from homeostasis. The contractions cause the fetal head to push harder on the cervix which increases the pressure. The cervix responds by making more prostaglandins, leading to more contractions, further increasing the fetal head’s pressure on the cervix.

A) If the body detects a change and works to make the levels move even farther away from homeostasis, that is positive feedback.

B) If the body detects a change beyond its normal homeostasis range (either too high or too low) and it works to reach its homeostasis range by reversing the direction of movement, that is positive feedback.

C) Homeostasis is the body’s ability to maintain a steady internal environment. This is achieved using positive and negative feedback mechanisms.

D) Homeostasis is the body’s ability to overcome an imbalanced internal environment. This is achieved using positive and negative feedback mechanisms.

Answer: B

Explanation: If the body detects a change beyond its normal homeostasis range (either too high or too low) and it works to reach its homeostasis range by reversing the direction of movement, that is negative feedback.

A) Blood vessels dilate.

B) Fluid leaks out of blood vessels causing swelling.

C) Blood flow to the injured area is increased.

D) All of the answers happen during inflammation.

Answer: D

Explanation: The damaged tissues produce chemicals called mediators of inflammation, which diffuse away from the damaged area and cause any blood vessels they meet to dilate. This brings more blood flow to the area. The increased blood flow accounts for the redness and heat. Blood vessels become more permeable when they dilate. Fluid from the blood leaks out into the surrounding damaged tissue, causing it to swell. This extra fluid increases pressure on the nerve endings, creating the pain.
