HOW ARE HOMEOSTASIS AND EXCRETION RELATED?
Homeostasis is … Excretion is …

In the case of these fishes…• Homeostasis is somewhat like how Salty Sail
maintains the water potential of his cells. • Drinking a lot of water and Excreting salt is the
way he achieves it.

Definition
Excretion is the process by which metabolic waste products and toxic materials are removed from the body of an organism.
Homeostasis is the maintenance of a constant internal environment. e.g. Body temperature, blood glucose concentration & blood water potential

What is homeostasis?
•Control and maintenance of a constant internal
environment around the cells in the body
What is negative feedback?
•A feedback mechanism is called negative if the resulting
action opposes the condition that triggers it.

Structure of the Mammalian Skin
![Page 12: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Skin
What are the 4 general functions of the mammalian skin?
• Excretory organ
• Temperature regulation
• Protective covering
ÞRemoves excess salts, water and urea in the form of sweat
Prevents entry of bacteria, protects from mechanical damage and excessive loss of water by evaporation
• Sense organÞDetect pain, pressure changes and temperature
Þto maintain a constant body temperature
12
![Page 13: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Structure of Epidermis – Protective Layer
• Outer cornified layer
outer cornified layer
consists of flat, dead cells that continually wear off
prevent bacteria from gaining entry into body
prevent mechanical injury to cells deeper inside skin
13
![Page 14: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Þcontains living cells which is gradually pushed up to
replace the worn-out cells in the cornified layer
• Granular layer
outer cornified layer
granular layer
14
![Page 15: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Þcontains actively dividing cells to produce new epidermis
Þcontains melanin pigments that gives skin its colour and
absorbs ultraviolet radiation
• Malpighian layer

granular layer
Malpighian layer

![Page 16: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Why do some people have freckles?
16
• Due to uneven melanin production.
• More obvious in fair-skinned people.
• Freckles become more prominent when exposed to sunlight because the skin produces extra melanin in sunny conditions.
![Page 17: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Why doesn’t bleeding occur when we lightly scratch ourselves sometimes?
17
• No blood vessels in epidermis
![Page 18: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Structure of dermis:
• Connective tissue with many collagen fibres and elastic
fibres
• Hair follicle and hair
• Sebaceous gland secrete sebum to lubricate skin
ÞDetect pain, changes in temperature and pressure on skin
• Nerve endings
• Erector muscles Controls the erection of hair
18
![Page 19: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Structure of dermis:
• Sweat gland
• Blood vessels
ÞAbsorbs salts and water from blood capillaries to produce
sweat for temperature regulation and excretion
ÞRegulate temperature by vascular constriction or dilation
19
![Page 20: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Why do we get pimples?
20
• Dead skin cells block hair follicles • sebum builds up in clogged pores • Sebaceous glands continue to produce
sebum but it has no where to go • Sebum becomes infected with bacteria.
Causes clogged pores to become inflamed and swollen. Zits!!!
![Page 21: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Why do we get wrinkles and fine lines?
21
Fine lines and wrinkles arise because of irregular thickening of the dermis and because of a decrease in the amount of water held by the epidermis. This is mainly caused by sun damage and exposure to environmental toxins such as tobacco smoke.
![Page 22: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Why are tattoos permanent?
22
What you see when you look at a tattoo is the ink that's left in the skin after the tattooing. The ink is not in the epidermis, which is the layer of skin that we see and the skin that gets replaced constantly, but instead intermingles with cells in the dermis and shows through the epidermis. The cells of the dermis are remarkably stable, so the tattoo's ink will last, with minor fading and dispersion, for your entire life!
![Page 23: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Why is the mammalian skin considered as an excretory organ?
The skin produces sweat, which may contain a small amount of metabolic waste product, i.e. urea.
Sweat contains:• water• dissolved sodium chloride• urea
23
![Page 24: Overview of homeostasis & excretion](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/55545651b4c905b7428b5479/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Sweat is secreted by the sweat gland. It travels through the sweat duct and out onto the skin via the sweat pore.

Q. What do we call animals which keep their body temperature at a roughly constant level, regardless of the environment’s temperature?
Warm-bloodedness generally refers to three separate aspects of thermoregulation.1. Endothermy (control via internal means strictly -
metabolism) 2. Homeothermy (thermoregulation within
regardless of external influence; opposite = poikilothermy)
3. Tachymetabolism (high resting metabolism rate)

Mechanisms in warm-blooded creatures To generate heat/Keep warm To prevent overheating“Warm-blooded creatrues” • have a larger number of
mitochondria per cell. • need more food needed to
sustain their higher metabolism.
• hibernates/Adjusts body temperature
• Have insulation e.g fur, feathers, fats & blood vessels in lower legs.
• Vasoconstriction in skin
• Panting (water evaporation)• Sweat• Radiators e.g. Elephants flapping their ears to increase the airflow over them• Vasodilation/Flushing

Metabolic Waste Products• substances left over from excretory processes• cannot be used (surplus/lethal effect)• must be excreted. E.g.Nitrogen compounds, water, CO2,
phosphates, sulfates, medicals, food additives

Q2. Why must living organisms excrete metabolic waste products?
• Accumulation of these substances – Can interfere with proper functioning of cells– Change the concentration of tissue fluid around
cells

Q2.1 What is the difference between excretion and egestion?
Excretion ≠ Egestion
(metabolic waste) (undigested waste)
