Redundant mechanisms
To maintain homeostasis, redundant mechanisms are present in the body so that when one of the systems fails, other complementary or backup systems can help to compensate and ensure the survive of the organism by maintaining homeostasis. Examples of these redundant systems involve blood pressure regulation, temperature regulation, breathing and pH control in the body during exercise.
Answer:
The correct answer is a. the photosynthetic part of a lichen.
Explanation:
Lichen is a symbiotic association in which the algae and fungi are associated with each other. Fungus can not make there own food so they are not photosynthetic like algae or plants and in lichens algae are the photosynthetic part while fungus plays the role of absorbing nutrients for the algal partner.
Lichens are found all over the world and they absorb industrial pollution very quickly so are also referred to as pollution indicators of the environment as they do not grow in a polluted area.
Therefore the photosynthetic part of lichen is algae, not fungus so the correct answer is a.

The correct answer is 1 second.
A period is a physical term which describes the time needed for one cycle of vibration to complete and reach a certain point. In this example, the term period refers to the time needed for one complete heartbeat to occur. Since 60 heartbeats occur in 60 seconds, then one heartbeat needs 1 second to complete.
