Affects of "ventromedial nucleus" and "lateral HT" on feeding behavior?
(HT & FEEDING behavior) |
Ventromedial nucl ---> decr. feeding
Lateral HT ---> INCR. feeding |
|
Osmometric thirst?
|
- triggered by INCR [solutes] in bld (hypertonicity)

Volumetric Thirst
|
- trigger is "hypovolemia" (DECR volume)
- DECR BP---> ANGIO II |

|
DECREASE
(vasoDILATE bld vessels) |
|
Posteriot HT controls INCR or DECR in body temp?
|
INCREASE
(vasoCONSTRICT bld vessels) |
