Homeostasis
Across
- 1. nerves that feeds back to the co-ordinating centre
- 4. regulation of glucose is an example of this feedback loop
- 7. hormone released in response to high sugar
- 8. organ that produces urine
- 9. a chemical that crosses a junction between to nerves to communicate a signal
- 11. coordination centre for thermoregulation
- 13. stored in the liver as a form of glucose
- 14. hormone released to increase water reuptake
- 15. an action that is performed without conscious thought as a response to a stimulus
Down
- 1. a junction between nerves
- 2. widening of the arterioles to allow increased blood flow to capillaries
- 3. medical condition in which blood glucose is not adequately controlled
- 5. the method in which chemicals cross the gap between nerves
- 6. gland responsible for the regulation of sugar
- 10. hormone released in response to low glucose levels
- 12. organ that holds/stores urine
- 16. organ that glycogenesis occurs in
