How is homeostasis like cleaning your room ?

Biology
1 answer:
natita [175]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

here.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is keeping internal body conditions near constant.

Now let's apply this to cleaning our room:

for example, if it's a mess, no one will really tolerate inhabiting it. Same with our body. For our bodies to function, everything needs to be ordered, all the chemical reactions need to happen at a certain rate at a certain time.

Let's for example talk about your room's temperature, if it gets too hot, you're going to switch on the fan and if it gets too cold, you'll hide under a blanket. And you will do this so that you're comfortable enough to carry on with what you do.

Same for our body, if it gets too hot, your body, via negative feedback, will be able to lower it's temperature such that the chemical reactions, keeping you alive, occur at an appropriate rate without enzyme denaturation.

Cleaning up your room from all the dirt is like excreting all the waste products that gives your body a healthy balance. Eg: the carbon dioxide you excrete when you breathe out is important because if it remains in your blood, the blood's ph will drop, which'll affect the rate of chemical reactions. Similarly if the dirt in your room accumulates it's going to smell bad.

What protein (purine)-rich food should be limited to prevent a reoccurrence of uric acid kidney stones? what protein (purine)-ri
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

Eggs

Explanation:

Uric acid stones are one of the four types of kidney stones which are formed due to the high amount of uric acid in the human body.

When the concentration of the uric acid increases in the urine due to which urine becomes acidic, the uric acid gets stored in the urinary pathway in the form of stones.

To remove the uric acid kidney-stones, the food rich in purines must be avoided like meat, eggs and green vegetables like mustard, spinach, and whole grains are suggested.

Question 1(Multiple Choice Worth 2 points)(05.05 MC)How does the human immune system initially respond to a pathogen?
Rufina [12.5K]

Immediately, the pathogen has been recognized:

Macrophages acts as the first line of defence by engulfing pathogens identified by antigens which will now present the antibody shape to a helper T cell.

The Helper T cells produce a signal to plasma and Memory B cells to yield antibodies that attach to the antigens. The cytotoxic cells that leads to cell death are activated by the helper T cells.

Antibodies helps to immobilize pathogen for macrophage to feed on.

if the pathogen comes back a 2nd time the memory cells helps in quick and efficient recovery by producing the specific B and T cells for the antigen.
