Biology Assignment 2
Addresses Course Learning Outcomes 1, 2, 3, and 4
- Apply appropriate terminology in identifying and discussing human anatomy and physiology.
- Apply knowledge of anatomy and physiology to real-world situations.
- Approach and examine anatomy and physiology issues from an evidence-based perspective.
- Describe the complex interrelationships between structure and function
- Explain how body systems work together to maintain homeostasis.
Every living organism relies on homeostatic processes for its survival, and humans are no exception. Homeostatic balance relies on the proper functioning of the body’s dynamic equilibrium process. Anything that prevents positive or negative feedback loops from working properly in response to disruptive outside forces and different types of internal or external negative stimuli, results in homeostatic imbalances which can lead to sickness and even death. Accordingly, many disorders result from the inability of the body to restore itself to a functional and stable internal environment. Since homeostatic equilibrium depends on three different components (receptors, control centers, and effectors), disruption of at least one of these components can cause homeostatic imbalance, consequently leading to human diseases and disorders.

Biology Assignment 2
For part 2 of the written assignment, you must choose two different disorders, which stem directly from the inability of the organ system you chose in part 1 to maintain homeostasis, resulting in homeostatic imbalance. Your two disease choices will serve as the basis for this assignment. After choosing the two disorders, please adhere to the following tasks and respond to the following inquiries. Any lacking elements or insufficiencies will result in the loss of points.
It is especially important for you to draft the paper in your own words, utilizing in-text references to assign proper authorship of the information. Turnitin is enabled within the classroom to support the development and assessment of authentic writing. Please note that a high Turnitin score may result in a mandatory resubmission of the assignment and subsequent deduction in grade.
