Question

________ results from the activities of the nervous or endocrine system.
A) Self-regulation
B) Automatic regulation
C) Intrinsic regulation
D) Extrinsic regulation
E) Autoregulation

Accepted Answer

Extrinsic regulation results from the activities of the nervous or endocrine system. This type of regulation involves responses to stimuli from outside the organ or system being regulated. Examples include the release of insulin in response to high blood sugar or the activation of the sympathetic nervous system in response to stress. Self-regulation, automatic regulation, intrinsic regulation, and autoregulation all refer to processes within an organ or system itself.
