Homeostasisthe ability of living organisms to maintain a stable interal enviroment despite changes in their surroundings
Stablecontstand temperature of 98.6 degrees F, contstant pH of ~ 7.2 - 7.6, constand salt and lbood sugar levels
If body is coldthe hypothalamus triggers the body's muscles to shiver which causes causes heat, like rubbing your hands together, hypothalamus makes metabolism speed up, blood vessels in teh body's extremities (fingers, arms, toes, legs) contract
if body is hotthe body sweats causing evaportation which is a cooling process
body systems that maintain homeostasisdigestive, cirvulatory, msucular, respirtatory, nervous, urinary, skeletal, endocrine.
disease's effectsit disrupts homeostatis, diabetes is a good example, the body has difficulty maintaining homeostais, homeosatis of several body systems is disrupted, and fuck things up good
carrierspeople that have a pathogen in them, yet they never get it
pathogen sourcepathogens come from abiotic and biotic factores
organism groupssix kingdoms: animal, plant, archaelbacteria,eubacteria, protista and fungi (virus arent) few of the kingdoms share pathogens because pathogens like certain places
Pathogen typeseubacteria, protista, fungi, virus (although not really a living thing)
eubacteriaone-celled bacteria that live virtually everywhere, less than 1% of them are harmful to humans, help decompose, digest food and make food
eubacteria gone badthey cause tetanus, tuberculosis, pneumonia, meningitis, typhoid fever, cholera, strep troat, leprosy, sexually transmitted diseases, lyme disease
protistaclassified into three categories, animal-like, plant-like, and fungus-like, they are mostly unicellular organisms, require moist eniroments to live,range of amoebas to giant seaweeds
Protita gone badmalaria, african sleeping sickness, amebix dysentery.
fungiinclude mushrooms, yeasts and molds,, cyase atgeketes fiit abd rubg wirj=n
virusesDNA or RNA strands surroned by a protein coating, they are not even cells, they cannot perform many of the functions necessary to live on their own, they can only reproduce by invaiding a host and damage it
viruses gone badcommon cold, influenza, rabies, smallpox, chicken pox, measles, mumps, mononucleousis, and AIDS
spread of diseaseinhalation, ingestion, vectors, sex and open wounds
noncommunicable diseasescome form lifestyle, environmental and heretitary
lifestly diseasesdiesaes that can be direcrtly or indirectly linked to life style choices such as diet, smokin, exersize habits, examples are stokes, heart attacks
enviromental diseasesmany substances in the enviroment may cause or aggrvate diseases, air pollutants include nitrogen oxides. sulfur oxides, hydrocarbons, ozone, and particulates ie asbestos, dust also, excesiuve exporsure to sunlight, specificaly ULTRA VIOLET! DIE cause cancer like prolonged exposure to radioactive substances
carcinomasform in the upper portion of skin and are relatively harmless if it is treated early
malignant melanomashard to treat, are in lower levels of the skin and love the cock just like pete
hereditay diseasesdiseases that you get from your parents because they suck alot, they come from different traits that your parents may or may not share like dimples, hitchhikes thumb, crooked penis, stumpy penis, or unattached earlobes, some are dominant and some are not
DNAstucted like a twisted ladder and the steps are made of chormosones/bases, DNA has four bases Adenine,m theymine, gaunine and cytoine
heretiditary diseasesSICKLE CELL ANEMIA (YEAH PETE YOU SEXUAL CHCOCLATE) and cystic fibrosis are 2 of them
punnett squaresare ussed to show the possible combinations of the parents alleles
