Extreme Environments Sahara Desert By: Katie Castrogiovanni
Homeostasis ,[object Object],Human Body: temp-98.6 degrees F Sugar level: between 70-150 mg pH level: between 7.35-7.45 Water balance: incoming is the same or greater than outgoing Blood pressure: less than 120(mm Hg)
Environmental Conditions Normal: -some humidity in the air -mild temps, not cold/hot extremes throughout the day (there are seasons that they go through, so there is a period of time when it is hot and when it is cold) -natural protection from UV -water sources nearby -food source Sahara Desert: -very dry (only gets about 3 in rainfall yearly) -extreme hot/ cold fluctuations daily (extremely hot during the day, but can get very cold at night) -very little, if  any shaded area -little vegetation -lack of water http://www.saharamet.com/desert/photos/dune01.jpg
Can You Survive in the Desert? YES,  for how long depends on resources you have *Without water you can  Only survive a few days -People called nomads  live  in the Sahara Desert *One thing that you would really want to do is save activity for cooler times of the day
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Organ Systems Effected *All organ systems of the body will be effected by the hot temperatures of the  desert. The body will have to adapt to these temperatures by using its natural ways of releasing heat from the body in order to keep the temperature of the organs at a normal level. The body senses that the temperature is rising, and send signals  Throughout the body, this causes the pores to opens and release heat, also signals  For sweat glands to moisten skin.   * DRKING LOTS OF WATER AND TRY TO STAY COOL!! *
