Hi,

The keeping of internal environment in the body constant is of utmost importance. Upset of this fine balance would lead to major physiological changes which could lead to multiple organ failure and death.

This set of powerpoint is wholesome. It covers everything that we need to learn for the exams. Check out the following concepts in the slides:
  • definition of homoeostasis
  • control of water potential, sugar conc in blood, temperature of body, urea conc in blood
  • structure and labels of urinary system
  • quiz on urinary system
  • kidney structure
  • nephron structure, its functions and processes that occur in filtering the blood
  • kidney dialyis machine and how it mimic the kidney functions
  • ADH, its functions and processes involved in controlling the volume and conc of blood
  • skin sturcture, labellling, its fucntions as sense organ and temperature control
  • how raising the hair, shivering, blood supply to skin and sweating are related to temperature control
