Sasha is a medical assistant at a pain clinic. One of her patients tells her, “The doctor says that, in a week or two, my joint

pain should begin to resolve, and I should reach homeostasis. What does all that mean?” Which of the following would be the BEST response from Sasha?
A. “She means that the trouble with your joints may affect your kidneys, so you may have trouble maintaining your body’s water balance. Did she ask you to write down how often you use the bathroom each day?”

B. “That’s great news! It means you’ll never have joint pain again. Once the body reaches homeostasis, there’s nothing that can disrupt it.”

C. “That’s great news! As your joint pain lessens, it will be easier for your body to reach a state of homeostasis. That means your body systems will be in balance and running smoothly.”

D. “The doctor is saying that your joint pain means you may have trouble regulating your body temperature. Did she ask you to take your own temperature every day?”

Answer:

I'm assuming the joint pain was related to a homeostatic imbalance. I believe the answer is C.

Explanation:

A is wrong but not false. Your kidneys (and other organs) can be affected, but the patient said that the doctor told them their pain will start to go away and they'll reach homeostasis. They didn't mention a problem with getting there.

Option B is patently false.

Option D is a little silly. Same sort of reasons with A.

To maintain homeostasis, the body must maintain mass balance. How much water must be consumed if 2000 mL was lost during exercis
Ilya [14]

Answer:

2.1 liter.

Explanation:

Homeostasis may be defined as the phenomena of the maintenance of the internal environment of the body irrespective of the change in the external or internal environment.

The water consumption is important for the body as the human's body consists of more than 60% water.

The water consumption can be calculated as follows:

Water consumption = water loss - water produced.

Water loss from exercise = 2000 ml = 2 liter, 300 ml was lost during from metabolism = 0.3 liter.

The water produced = 200 ml = 0.2 liter.

The water consumption = 2 L + 0.3 L - 0.2 L

Total water consumption done by the body = 2.1 liter.

Thus, the answer is 2.1 liter.
