Explain one way a human being responds to an environmental change that maintains homeostasis

Biology

Kitty [74]1 year ago

Even though conditions in the external environment may vary widely, most organisms must keep internal conditions such as temperature and water content fairly constant to survive.

<h3>What is homeostasis?</h3>

The tendency to maintain a stable, relatively constant internal environment is called homeostasis. The body maintains homeostasis for many factors in addition to temperature. For instance, the concentration of various ions in your blood must be kept steady, along with pH and the concentration of glucose. If these values get too high or low, you can end up getting very sick.

<h3>Homeostasis features:</h3>
  • Homeostasis is the tendency to resist change in order to maintain a stable, relatively constant internal environment.
  • Homeostasis typically involves negative feedback loops that counteract changes of various properties from their target values, known as set points.
  • In contrast to negative feedback loops, positive feedback loops amplify their initiating stimuli, in other words, they move the system away from its starting state.

TRUE OR FALSE<br><br> Both animal and plant cells use cellular respiration to make energy.
Radda [10]

Answer:

It's responsible for cellular respiration in both plants and animal cells. The difference is that plants also have chloroplasts that perform photosynthesis. Animals get their energy by eating food, digesting it, and turning it into the base sugars, proteins, and lipids that the cells can burn to perform cellular respiration (which makes ATP).

The ________ division of the nervous system carries motor commands to muscles and glands.
taurus [48]

The answer is efferent division. The nervous system acts as an input-output system. The afferent nervous system conveys signals to the brain following a stimulus. After processing of the information, the brain sends out a signal in response. This response is carried by the efferent nerve to the requisite organ involved in the response.
