Homeostasis is the regulation of internal body conditions such as temperature, sugar levels in blood, salt content etc. Without it many functions would become non-functional. If you take temperature for example without the control of our internal body temperature many metabolic reactions (enzyme-controlled reactions) would stop/ slow down. If the temp gets too high the enzymes denature and you wouldn't get an enzyme-substrate complexes forming. If the temp is too low the enzymes have a low kinetic energy and so don't collide with the substrate as much as at normal body temp. pH has similar affect but a change in pH will always denature enzymes.

How can mental alertness help to prevent injuries?
riadik2000 [5.3K]
<span>Studies have shown that a number of psychological factors might predispose an athlete to an acute injury. Different people have different “mind-sets” for the competition and intensity of exercise or sports. If you’re overly “psyched out” by the importance you place on the number of repetitions you can do or the number of games you win, or if the environmental conditions in which you must perform aren’t ideal (“it’s too windy/cold/hot”), your psychological state could detract from your performance and put you at risk for injury. If you’re already injured and are still engaging in activity, this, too, can be a distraction that puts you at greater risk.</span>
