5 | The Wallenda Model of Homeostasis
26 minutes
Multiple models of homeostasis may be needed for students to fully understand the important core concept of homeostasis. Here, Kevin describes an analogy he uses—a person on a highwire. Listen to why he calls this model The Wallenda Model and find out how he uses it to better understand homeostasis.
The Wallendas are a family of highwire artists famous for very high/long "sky walks" and human pyramids on the wire Karl Wallenda, the most famous of the clan, died from a fall off the wire during a sky walk The famous 7-person pyramid was also marred by a tragic fall Elements of The Wallenda Model Variable: position of body Set point: directly over the wire Sensors: nerve receptors (eyes, inner ears, muscle stretch receptors, etc.) Integrator: brain Effectors: skeletal muscles Where to send students: lionden.com/homeostasis.htm A summary of all three models Kevin uses to teach homeostasis Includes photos and links to videos Survival Guide for Anatomy & Physiology lionden.com/tips-survival-guide.htm Includes a short, illustrated summary of The Wallenda Model of Homeostasis
