Pnuemonia is a common respiratory infection caused by excess fluid in the lung sacs. The purpose of white blood cells are to fight off infections. When the white blood cell count in higher than normal, this means the persons body, in this case your sister, is fighting off an infection. Secretions are the body's way of clearing mucus out of the lungs. The two main ways to clear the mucus out of lungs are the mucocilary systems and basic coughing. Her body has a higher amount of secretions directly due to the respiratory infection. Draining fluid out of her lungs is the best option now if medications are not helping. The way to drain the fluid is by a nasal tube inserted through her nasal cavity typically done while one is put asleep by general anesthesia.

Answer: Homeostasis refers to stability, balance, or equilibrium within a cell or the body. It is an organism’s ability to keep a constant internal environment. Homeostasis is an important characteristic of living things. Keeping a stable internal environment requires constant adjustments as conditions change inside and outside the cell. The adjusting of systems within a cell is called homeostatic regulation. Because the internal and external environments of a cell are constantly changing, adjustments must be made continuously to stay at or near the set point (the normal level or range). Homeostasis can be thought of as a dynamic equilibrium rather than a constant, unchanging state.
Feedback Regulation Loops
The endocrine system plays an important role in homeostasis because hormones regulate the activity of body cells. The release of hormones into the blood is controlled by a stimulus. For example, the stimulus either causes an increase or a decrease in the amount of hormone secreted. Then, the response to a stimulus changes the internal conditions and may itself become a new stimulus. This self-adjusting mechanism is called feedback regulation.
Feedback regulation occurs when the response to a stimulus has an effect of some kind on the original stimulus. The type of response determines what the feedback is called. Negative feedback occurs when the response to a stimulus reduces the original stimulus. Positive feedback occurs when the response to a stimulus increases the original stimulus.
