How do body systems work together to maintain homeostasis

Biology
1 answer:
Novosadov [1.4K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: By Hormonal action and Nervous coordination

Explanation:

Hormones are substances produced by one tissue and conveyed by the bloodstream to another to effect physiological activity. Homeostasis is the maintenance of a stable internal environment in the body.

Body systems such as digestive, circulatory, excretory systems etc, all are coordinated to achieve a STABLE INTERNAL ENVIRONMENT by the aid of HORMONES AND/OR NERVOUS COORDINATION.

For Example: the vasodilation of blood vessels during hot weather, and the opposite action of vasoconstriction during cold weather are both controlled by Hormonal action and nervous coordination which leads to a stable body temperature preventing excess heat accumulation.

Also, Nervous system controls the body systems, such that the muscle contractions are joined to actions like sweating, breathing, respiration etc

So, to maintain homeostasis hormonal action and Nervous coordination is necessary.

Nucleotides can be radiolabeled before they are incorporated into newly synthesized DNA and, therefore, can be assayed to track
adoni [48]

Answer:

e. infection causes lymphocytes to divide more rapidly

Explanation:

The cell cycle includes interphase and M phase which in turn together produce daughter cells from the existing parent cells. DNA replication occurs during the S phase of interphase to ensure that the daughter cells obtain the identical DNA present in the parent cell.

Lymphocytes are one of the types of white blood cells and are involved in cell-mediated and antibody-mediated immune responses. These cells are present in the blood as well as in lymphatic tissues. During the given experiment, lymphocytes exhibited a higher rate of incorporation of labeled nucleotide after the introduction of a pathogen in the culture. This suggests that the introduction of pathogen triggered the cell division in lymphocytes to produce more lymphocytes to fight the infection.

Which best illustrates a result of natural selection?
Yanka [14]

Answer: The correct answer is -

D) giraffes having increasingly longer necks over time.

Natural selection is an evolutionary mechanism that was proposed by Darwin.

According to this mechanism, organisms that are better capable of adapting to their changing environmental conditions, survive and increase their number through reproduction whereas other are eliminated from the population.

Example - Long neck of Giraffe, which is much elongated, lofty stature, that was beautifully adapted for browsing on the higher tree branches. This was an adaptation with slow and gradual change in the gene frequency as the lower vegetation was eaten by other animals. Due to this, giraffes had to search for other source (that was higher tree branches).

This is considered as a peculiar example of natural selection.
