Homeostasis & Behavior&

Further Discussion of the Posterior Pituitary

9.2 The thermostat is a common homeostatic device

9.3 Behavioral thermoregulation in iguanas (Part 2)

9.3 Behavioral thermoregulation in iguanas (Part 1)

9.3 Behavioral thermoregulation in iguanas (Part 3)

Iguanas were injected with an infectious agent and their survival was correlated with the temperature they were kept.

9.4 Body fluid is maintained in separate, but interacting, compartments

9.5 Osmosis

9.6 Osmotic thirst

9.7 Two types of thirst result from different osmotic conditions

CELL “DEHYDRATION”

Loss of fluids and solutes…. Such as in blood loss.

9.8 Rating of thirst after water deprivation (Part 1)

9.8 Rating of thirst after water deprivation (Part 2)

9.9 Vasopressin (ADH) mediates water consumption

Brattleboro rats lack Vassopressin (ADH) and are therefore perpetually thirsty.
