The temporary organ that connects fetus to mother — gas and nutrient exchange, immune tolerance, hormone production, and what happens at delivery. - Homeostasis
How the body keeps its internal environment stable — temperature, pH, glucose, and more — through negative feedback loops. - Action Potentials
The electrical pulse neurons use to send signals: resting potential, ion channels, and the all-or-none wave that travels down axons.
