Needs a target or effector set point - answerin homeostatic mechanisms, this range determines what is within healthy boundaries. A high enough error will result in an output. Can be modified (i.e. fever to combat infection) insulin - answerlowers blood glucose levels to maintain homeostasis glucagon - answerincreases blood glucose levels to maintain homeostasis negative feedback - answerfeedback loops that works to return the state of the organism back to the set point. Maintains homeostasis by counteracting disruption. Self terminating Positive feedback - answerfeedback loops that amplify the stimulus, output is fed back into the system to increase output. These do not shut themselves off, require outside factors positive feedback - answerHormone control during childbirth, lactation, and blood clotting are examples of this type of feedback negative feedback - answerglucose levels, heart rate, etc. are examples of this type of feedback phospholipid bilayer - answercomposed of hydrophobic tails and heads; fluid mosaic; forms the plasma membrane. Serves as a physical barrier, gateway for exchange, communication, and attachment site passive transport - answertransport that requires no extra energy; movement occurs randomly from areas of high concentration to low concentration active transport - answertransport that requires energy typically in the form of ATP; molecules are moved from areas of low concentration to high concentration, AGAINST concentration gradient simple diffusion - answerrandom motion of molecules in solution that results in spread of molecules from areas of high concentration to low concentration. Net movement until the concentrations are equal. Can occur in open system or across partition (plasma membrane) flux - answerhow much does a concentration
