Activity 7 – Connecting Concepts
Review topics: Homeostasis, Acids and Bases, the Cell Membrane, and Functions of the Integumentary System in Unit 1 Learning Content to respond to the following 1-2 well-composed paragraphs written in your own words. If any outside sources are used to inspire and support your response, please properly cite and reference them in APA format.
At the beginning of this unit we discussed the idea that our systems function on many levels – organs, tissues, cells, and chemicals working together to fulfill their purpose. When everything works correctly, we are in a state of homeostasis. In this task, you’ll share your understanding of homeostasis and provide examples of how the body works to maintain homeostasis.
Part One:
• Briefly compare and contrast negative and positive feedback in your own words – make sure you discuss both similarities and differences.
Part Two:
• Chemical Homeostasis: Define what a buffer is and briefly describe how it interacts with chemical substances to maintain the balance of pH needed by the body to function.
• Cellular Homeostasis: Saline is an isotonic solution; however, if a patient was accidentally hydrated with sterile water instead of saline:
o Describe the tonicity/osmolarity of the water and the relative tonicity/osmolarity of the patient’s red blood cells.
o What will happen to the patient’s red blood cells over time as they attempt to reach equilibrium? Are the cells maintaining homeostasis as they undergo this process – justify your answer.
• Tissue/Organ Homeostasis:
o Describe 2 roles of the skin in homeostasis making sure to include how a specific organ, tissue, cell, or chemical related to the skin helps the body maintain the proper conditions to function.

Read this excerpt from "The Past" by Ellen Glasgow.

When I gave my name and explained that I was the new secretary, I was delivered into the charge of an elderly lady's maid, who looked as if she had been crying. Without speaking a word, though she nodded kindly enough, she led me down the hall, and then up a flight of stairs at the back of the house to a pleasant bedroom in the third story. There was a great deal of sunshine, and the walls, which were painted a soft yellow, made the room very cheerful. It would be a comfortable place to sit in when I was not working, I thought, while the sad-faced maid stood watching me remove my wraps and hat.

"If you are not tired, Mrs. Vanderbridge would like to dictate a few letters," she said presently, and they were the first words she had spoken.

"I am not a bit tired. Will you take me to her?" One of the reasons, I knew, which had decided Mrs. Vanderbridge to engage me was the remarkable similarity of our handwriting. We were both Southerners, and though she was now famous on two continents for her beauty, I couldn't forget that she had got her early education at the little academy for young ladies in Fredericksburg. This was a bond of sympathy in my thoughts at least, and, heaven knows, I needed to remember it while I followed the maid down the narrow stairs and along the wide hall to the front of the house.

Who is the story’s first-person narrator?

a woman hired to be a secretary
an older lady's maid
a famous Southern lady
an educated woman in need of a secretary
