    The adaptation of archaea in acidic condition. How archaea adapt to acidic environment ? Use variety pH homeostatic mechanism that involve restricting proton entry by cytoplasmic membrane and purging of protons and their effect by cytoplasm. pH homeostatic mechanisms The cell membrane is highly impermeable to protons Membrane channel have a reduced pore size. Protein influx inhibited by chemiosmotic gradient Excess proton pumped out of the cell Cytoplasmic buffering helps to maintain

    system falls out of balance. In the worst cases‚ it fails completely. With the simulation of the fictional patient‚ if the body did not stay at a homeostatic state‚ then the patient either gained weight or lost weight. In both cases‚ the patient died. No matter the age or size of the patient‚ it was always possible for the patient to reach a homeostatic state. To reach this state‚ the patient either had to eat less or do more physical activity. Just by taking some basic steps‚ the body helped maintain

    Chapter 1 Overview Notes: You are to read the text’s chapter and look through the Powerpoint notes on Blackboard as well. Anatomy literally means “to cut” – tomy and “apart” – ana‚ since in the early days anatomists used cadavers to cut apart and see inside. Physiology literally means the “study of nature” so we study the nature or functions of the body systems. We have to understand that the structure of any body part – muscle cell contracts the organ‚ protein fibers contract the muscle

    difficult to survive in a given environment‚ humans would be able to adapt as their bodily systems are constantly balancing and changing to their adaptations. A reproduction advantage also links in to this as well. Thermoregulation as well as all homeostatic processes allow the body to constantly deal with change‚ by means of a ‘balancing act’. Over time‚ if these are able to continue‚ “an organism is able to inhabit a wider range of habitats and reproduce more successfully to maintain population.”

    Introduction: Homeostasis is the tendency of the body to seek and maintain equilibrium‚ a state of balance‚ within its internal environment. Endotherms are “warm blooded” animals that produce and maintain their own internal body heat. Most mammals and a few birds‚ are endotherms; this is beneficial because the enzymes in the body that carry out metabolic processes have an optimum temperature at which they function‚ having the body constantly be‚ or be close to‚ this optimum internal temperature
