Homiestasis

3. These organs have a very distinct shape and even have a type of bean named after them.
6. this hormone activates our "fight-or-flight" mechanism and often makes us feel a rush
9. these chemical regulators target only specific parts of the body like an arrow fired from bow,the bow being the gland that secreted them
11. these chemicals are like radio waves and anyone with the right equipment such as a radio(receptor) can tune-in and use them
13. In this type of diffusion, water molecules move to across a membrane to balance solute concentrations on both sides like gym teachers sending kids to seperate sides of the gym to balance teams for a dodgeball game
14. this machine acts as an artificial kidney for those whose kidneys no longer function
15. If the human body was a computer, this gland would be the motherboard

8. imagine your body as a house and the excretory system as a faucet. In this type of diabetes, the faucet is running and you (ADH) are not home to turn it off so lots of water is being excreted and wasted
10. These chemical regulators are like orders from a general and travel to receptors/cells, which are like soldiers waiting for orders
12. your doctor might ask you for a sample of this when you go for a check up
