"the tendency toward a relatively stable equilibrium between interdependent elements, especially as maintained by physiological processes."
What that basically means is that homeostasis is the ability to respond to certain environments. It is how you respond to environmental changes and how you basically adapt to it.. that's where the idea of response and adaption came from.
Hope this Helps!! (I had a quiz on this once) </span>
The flu vaccine changes every year. The flu vaccine is based on a predicted strain that is anticipated to be the most infectious that year. Thats why people who sometimes get the vaccination still get the flu, they don't have the antibodies for the strain they were infected with. Strains for viral disease don't change very much and usually the vaccination for them cover them well.
Primary succession occurs when vegetation occurs in a place for the very first time, i.e there was no vegetation there before.

The cell membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer.
The cell membrane is primarily composed of a mix of proteins and phospholipids
Phospholipids are a major component of cell membranes. They a head and a tail. The head is hydrophilic (attracted to water) and the tail is hydrophobic (repelled by water).
They form a bilayer in which their hydrophilic heads face the aqueous cytosol and extracellular fluid while their hydrophobic tails face away from the cytosol and extracellular fluid.
The lipid bilayer is semi - permeable
you see.... most sea turtles will return back to the place were they were born to make a nesting ground
