How do body systems work together to maintain homeostasis

Biology
1 answer:
Novosadov [1.4K]4 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.

Answer:

The correct option is B. A hypothesis

Explanation:

Scientific method can be described as a method following which all scientific researches are made. The scientific method begins with a question. To answer this question, a hypothesis is derived.

A hypothesis can be described as a statement based on which observations are made end experiments are done. A hypothesis is a tentative statement. As the student in the question writes a tentative statement in his/her journal, hence it is most likely to be a hypothesis.

For the first 2 rows it’s going to be the dominant phenotype. So “purple flowers” for the 1st and 2nd row and white flowers for the last one. For the first row on #17 it’s going to be “FF “and “ff” for the 2nd. Tongue roller is “TT” and non tongue roller is “tt.”

Hi everyone!:) i just need help with this science question in my textbook!
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: In a simple sense, growth in population is a good thing as it means that a species is thriving and doing well in its environment as well as reproducing at desirable rates.  However, if population continues and continues to grow it will eventually reach a cap where an environment can no longer hold more members of that specific species because there is a limit on food and places of shelter.  This leads to natural rises and declines in a species over time (which can be very predictable as well.)  A downside to rapid and sustained population growth is that if a species keeps growing and growing without reaching its cap (which happens a lot with introduced species into an environment which were not there naturally) is that they can overrun and destroy a natural environment and damage the ecosystem.  Animals and species which are already there can have their population numbers drastically reduced because of this invasive species and may be forced to move to a new area.

No, it's because the gases are being heated. Gases expand when heated, and that's what you'd be seeing.

A woman with normal vision has a son. The woman’s maternal grandfather is color-blind. What is the probability that the son is c
Reptile [31]

Answer:

= \frac{1}{4}

Explanation:

Given that the woman’s maternal grandfather is color-blind, then it is possible that the woman is a carrier of color-blind allele.

Then probability that the woman is a carrier of color-blind allele is = \frac{1}{2}  

So if a carrier woman cross with a normal man

Let say the gene of the carrier woman is: XX^c

and the normal man = XY

so if we have a cross between  XY and XX^c; we have:

                     X                     Y

X                   XX                 XY

X^c                 XX^c                 X^cY

we can see the offspring to be :

XX =normal unaffected female

XY = normal unaffected male

XX^c = carrier female for color-blind

X^cY = carrier male for color-bind

Then probability that of  inheriting defective allele = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}

Let's not forget that the probability that the woman is a carrier of color-blind allele is = \frac{1}{2}  

∴  the probability that the son is colorblind = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{2}

= \frac{1}{4}
