Document Summary

Bioa02 module #2 - physiology and the nervous. August krogh principle: for ever question in biology there is an ideal model system. Physiological change caused by moderate to long term exposure to a given environmental condition either naturally or in a laboratory setting. Physiological mechanisms that have developed over long periods of time due to constant exposure of a population to a speci c environment. Physiological response to changing conditions to restore homeostasis. Physiological response in anticipation of changing conditions. The internal body level any variable does not differ than the environment the animal is in. The internal body level any variable is kept at a value different from the environment the animals lives in. Biological change that occurs over a 24 hour time period. Environment physiology: levels of o2 and co2, temperature, water salinity, pollution, absence of light. The signal is then sent via an afferent neuron to the central nervous system.
