How is the concept of homeostasis related to disease and aging?

Biology
1 answer:
tigry1 [53]3 years ago
5 0
<span>The body is constantly changing, no matter what age. It has to maintain homeostasis, or balance at all times or illness/death occurs. If your body is weakened, it then becomes harder to maintain this state. If one component goes out of balance; ie, water content, it affects the whole body. Swelling(edema) CHF(serious heart problem) kidneys may be overtaxed/unable to release the extra fluid. As the body ages organs naturally become less efficient, therefore making homeostasis more challenging.</span>

Will give brainliest to first correct answer.<br><br> Explain how the superbug was created.
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

A superbug refers to a germ that has formed resistance to multiple drugs that once treated the infection caused by the germ. The term “superbug” was developed by the media. While any germ may become a superbug, bacterial and fungal strains that routinely infect humans, animals, and crops are most likely to do so.

Superbugs are strains of bacteria that are resistant to several types of antibiotics. ... And the overuse and misuse of antibiotics helps to create drug-resistant bacteria. Here's how that might happen. When used properly, antibiotics can help destroy disease-causing bacteria.
