Homeostasis Quiz


Homeostasis QuizVersion en ligne Test your body balance par Joshua Pading 1 Define homeostasis. a The body’s response to injury b The body’s ability to maintain stable internal conditions despite changes c The breakdown of nutrients d The process of growth 2 Give one example of the body restoring homeostasis. a Heart rate increases during exercise b The liver releases stored glucose when blood glucose drops returning BGL to normal (4–8 mmol). c Breathing stops during sleep d Muscles contract randomly 3 What are the three components of a feedback loop? a Brain, heart, lungs b Stimulus, response, recovery c Receptor, control centre, effector d 4 Explain negative feedback. a A system that increases change b A system that ignores change c A system that reduces or reverses a change d A system that stops all processes 5 Explain positive feedback. a A system that maintains stability b A system that amplifies a change further away from normal c A system that stops change completely d A system that slows processes down 6 Give two examples of negative feedback. a Temperature regulation and blood glucose regulation b Childbirth and blood clotting c Digestion and respiration d Growth and development 7 Give two examples of positive feedback. a Circulation and movement b Hormone release and digestion c Temperature control and breathing d Childbirth and blood clotting 8 What is the afferent pathway? a Carries messages away from the control centre b Brings about an action to restore balance c Detects changes in the environment d Carries messages towards the control centre 9 What is the efferent pathway? a Carries messages away from the control centre to effectors b Carries messages towards the control centre c Detects stimuli d Acts as a receptor 10 What is the role of affectors (receptors)? a Bring about a response b Carry messages to muscles c Detect change and send signals to the control centre d Adjust bicarbonate levels 11 What systems usually act as the control centre? a Respiratory and digestive systems b Cardiovascular and skeletal systems c Urinary and lymphatic systems d Nervous and endocrine systems 12 Why are muscles and glands considered effectors? a They detect external stimuli b They send signals to the control centre c They bring about actions that restore balance (e.g., sweating, vasodilation, hormone release) d They regulate blood pH 13 Describe the homeostatic steps when the body gets too hot: a Receptors detect heat → afferent pathway → control centre → efferent signal → blood vessels dilate & sweat glands activate (cooling) b Receptors detect heat → control centre → blood vessels constrict → body warms c Effector detects heat → sends signal to receptor d Control centre releases insulin 14 Is temperature regulation negative or positive feedback? Why? a Negative feedback — it reverses the temperature rise to restore normal range b Positive feedback — it increases the temperature further c Neutral feedback — no change occurs d Cyclic feedback — repeats continuously 15 Explain why childbirth is positive feedback. a It reduces hormonal activity b Cervical stretch → release oxytocin → stronger contractions → more stretch → more oxytocin release, until birth ends the cycle c It restores balance immediately d It reverses the process once contractions start 16 Explain why blood clotting is positive feedback. a Platelets dissolve the clot b The body reduces platelet activity c The process stops immediately after injury d Platelets stick to the wound → attract more platelets → increases clot formation until bleeding stops 17 What is the normal blood pH range? a 6.8 – 7.2 b 7.5 – 8.0 c 7.35 – 7.45 d 6.5 – 7.0 18 What is acidosis? a Blood pH below 7.35 (too many H⁺ ions) b Blood pH above 7.45 c Excess bicarbonate levels d Loss of oxygen in blood 19 What is alkalosis? a Blood pH below 7.35 b Blood pH above 7.45 (too few H⁺ ions) c Increase in H⁺ ions d Excess carbon dioxide 20 What is the most common buffer in the body? a Phosphate b Protein c Bicarbonate (HCO₃⁻) acts as a primary buffer in the body, maintaining blood pH balance. d Ammonia 21 What is the role of buffers? a Speed up pH changes b Quickly neutralise strong acids or bases to prevent major pH changes c Produce hydrogen ions d Absorb CO₂ 22 How does the respiratory system regulate pH? a By increasing bicarbonate reabsorption b By controlling kidney function c By releasing hormones d By removing CO₂/H⁺ through breathing — this is fast 23 How does the renal system regulate pH? a By exhaling more CO₂ b By removing H⁺ and adjusting bicarbonate levels through urine — this is slow c By sweating d By stimulating muscles 24 Why is homeostasis less effective in older adults? a Stronger feedback loops and faster responses b Increased hormonal activity c Slower, less sensitive feedback loops; decline in endocrine control; reduced organ efficiency; more disease/medication effects d Enhanced thermoregulation 25 Example of an internal factor disrupting homeostasis: a Low blood glucose, dehydration, illness b Cold weather c Heat exposure d Toxins 26 Example of an external factor disrupting homeostasis: a Low blood sugar b Dehydration c Hormone imbalance d Cold weather, heat, toxins
