Many different feedback mechanisms have evolved over time. These mechanisms allow an organism to respond to changes in both its

internal and external environment. Select an organism from those you have learned about and using one or more complete sentences, describe how a specific feedback process works within that organism. Include how the feedback specifically helps the organism maintain homeostasis.

Answer:

Regulation of body temperature in human occurs through negative feedback system.

Explanation:

Lowering down the body temperature below the average range is followed by shivering of skeletal muscles to generate heat and to bring back the body temperature to normal range. Similarly, when the body temperature is higher than normal value, the body's thermostat stimulates dilation of blood vessels to allow more blood flow bear the body surface to loose the heat. So, regulation of body temperature in human is an example of negative feedback system

In humans, one feedback mechanism is to either sweat or shiver, depending on the body temperature. Sweating helps lower the body's temperature, and shivering helps raise the body's temperature.

Mercury is a toxin that is of significant concern due to biomagnification. Explain how mercury found in an aquatic environment c
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer: Mercury has been well known as an environmental pollutant for several decades. As early as the 1950's it was established that emissions of mercury to the environment could have serious effects on human health. These early studies demonstrated that fish and other wildlife from various ecosystems commonly attain mercury levels of toxicological concern when directly affected by mercury-containing emissions from human-related activities. Human health concerns arise when fish and wildlife from these ecosystems are consumed by humans.

During the past decade, a new trend has emerged with regard to mercury pollution. Investigations initiated in the late 1980's in the northern-tier states of the U.S., Canada, and Nordic countries found that fish, mainly from nutrient-poor lakes and often in very remote areas, commonly have high levels of mercury. More recent fish sampling surveys in other regions of the U.S. have shown widespread mercury contamination in streams, wet-lands, reservoirs, and lakes. To date, 33 states have issued fish consumption advisories because of mercury contamination.

These continental to global scale occurrences of mercury contamination cannot be linked to individual emissions of mercury, but instead are due to widespread air pollution. When scientists measure mercury levels in air and surface water, however, the observed levels are extraordinarily low.

The warmer the star, the bluer it will appear. The cooler a star, the more red it will appear. 

Proxima Centauri Red Dwarf Stars for example have significantly less heat, therefore their red color.
