Question
5. The following is a sequence of steps that describes the flow of information from an external stimulus to a
physiological response:
Stimulus- → sensor → integrator→ effector→→→ response
When you walk into the cold wearing only a T-shirt, you shiver.
a) Identify the stimulus, sensor, integrator, effector, and response in this interaction between you and the
cold. (please respond in your blue book)
Stimulus
Sensor
Integrator
Effector
Response
b) i) Explain what shivering accomplishes regarding thermoregulation, and ii) illustrate using the
temperature vs time axes below (please redraw into your blue book).
Time
c) In response to a viral infection, your body mounts a fever in response, i) Explain generally why it does
so and ii) describe the steps from infection to the rise in your body's temperature that we have
discussed in class.
d) After your immune system subdues the virus, you wake up in sweaty clothes. i) Explain generally why
you wake up in that state and ii) describe the steps that occur in your body that result in this response.
e) Bats have been implicated as the source of many viruses against which humans have a difficult time
mounting an effective immune response. Interestingly, flight plays an important role. i) Describe and
explain i) the role that flight plays in creating these kinds of viruses, ii) how the viruses cross over into
humans, and iii) why our immune response has a more difficult time mounting an effective response
against them 4
