It is a winter day in Florida, and the temperature is 40°F in the morning. While you are walking to class, your body uses a nega

tive feedback loop in order to shiver and maintain your internal body temperature at 98.6°F. After class, the temperature outside has increased to 80°F and you begin to sweat since you are still wearing your winter clothes. Is the process of sweating in order to cool down and maintain an internal body temperature of 98.6°F an example of a positive or negative feedback loop?

Answer:

negative feedback

Explanation:

The negative feedback system is the most common in the body, being considered by many authors the primary mechanism for the maintenance of homeostasis. It causes a negative change from the initial change, that is, a stimulus contrary to the one that led to the imbalance. In the case of the above question, when the ambient temperature increased, your body began to sweat to lower the temperature, that is, your body is trying to make a stimulus contrary to what is happening in the environment, so we can state that your body is going through a negative feedback system.

Fossils provide solid evidence that organisms from the past are not the same as those found today; fossils show a progression of evolution. Fossils, along with the comparative anatomy of present-day organisms, constitute the morphological, or anatomical, record. By comparing the anatomies of both modern and extinct species, paleontologists can infer the lineages of those species. This approach is most successful for organisms that had hard body parts, such as shells, bones or teeth. The resulting fossil record tells the story of the past and shows the evolution of form over millions of years.

Approximately 2 million years ago the genus Australopithecus gave rise to a new genus, Homo. Today, we retain the genus as Homo
nydimaria [60]
There was two of the same question, but here is the answer again with a little more depth.

D - spine alignment and foot size.

It was only the late Australopiths that had an S-shaped spine. This allowed for them to be bipedal, that is, the ability to walk on two legs as we do. This is because the S-shaped spine allowed them to balance when they were standing. The late Australopiths also have shorter and less flexible toes. These smaller, but sturdier feet made pushing off the ground much easier - aiding in their bipedalism.
