2. Biological systems utilize free energy and molecular building blocks to grow, to reproduce and to maintain dynamic homeostasis.A. Growth Reproduction and maintenance of the organization of living
systems require free energy and matter.B. Growth, reproduction and dynamic homeostasis require that cells
create and maintain internal environments that are different from their external environments.
C. Organisms use feedback mechanisms to regulate growth and reproduction, and to maintain dynamic homeostasis.
D. Growth and dynamic homeostasis of a biological system are influenced by changes in the system’s environment.
E. Many biological processes involved in growth, reproduction and dynamic homeostasis include temporal regulation and coordination.
2.C. Organisms use feedback mechanisms to regulate growth and reproduction, and
to maintain dynamic homeostasis.
1. Organisms use feedback mechanisms to maintain their internal environments and respond to external environmental changes.
2. Organisms respond to changes in their external environments.
2.C.1. Organisms use feedback mechanisms to maintain their internal environments and respond to external
environmental changes.a. Negative feedback mechanisms maintain dynamic homeostasis
for a particular condition (variable) by regulation physiological processes, returning the changing condition back to its target set point.
b. Positive feedback mechanisms amplify responses and processes in biological organisms. The variable initiating the response is moved farther away from the initial set-point. Amplification occurs when the stimulus is further activated which, in turn, initiates an additional response that produces system change.
c. Alteration in the mechanisms of feedback often results in deleterious consequences.
2.C.1.a. Negative feedback mechanisms maintain dynamic homeostasis for a particular condition (variable) by regulation physiological
processes, returning the changing condition back to its target set point.
• Operons– trp Operon– lac Operon
• Temperature Regulation• Plant Response to Water Limitations
trp Operon
• “On” by default – repressible
lac Operon
• “Off” by default - inducible
Lac Operon (continued)
• This operon is further enhanced when glucose is in short supply.

processes, returning the changing condition back to its target set point.

2.C.1.c. Alteration in the mechanisms of feedback
often results in deleterious consequences.
• Diabetes Mellitus– Type 1 – lack of insulin
production– Type 2 – decreased response
to insulin
2.C.1.c. Alteration in the mechanisms of feedback often results in deleterious consequences.
• Graves Disease– Antibodies bind to TSH receptors– Overproduction of T3 and T4
– Exophthalmos, Hyperactivity, Nervousness, Irritibality, Insomnia
