Answer:

The correct answer is B. Ingesting too much alcohol leads to vomiting.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the ability of the body to resist the chemical or physical change in the body and remain in constant and steady-state for example in hot days when temperature goes above 40° Celcius our body temperature remains at 37° c with the help of sweating.

Another example is vomiting after ingesting too much alcohol because alcohol is toxic and ingesting too much alcohol produces extra acids in the stomach which irritates stomach lining that results in upset stomach and vomiting.  

So by vomiting the alcohol our body reduces the toxic effect of alcohol in the body and resist the change in the body.

Which of these organs is found in the excretory system?
Paraphin [41]

The urinary system is the main excretory system of the body after the gastrointestinal tract (large intestine) and lungs, In these questions it is necessary to prioritize the urinary tract.

The right answer is D. Bladder

The bladder belongs to the urinary excretory system.

The bladder receives the urine produced by the kidneys via the ureter and has the function of storing it before its elimination during urination through the urethra. The muscles surrounding the bladder help to prevent urine reflux to the ureter.


The right answer is C. Kidneys

The main purpose of the renal excretory system is to eliminate nitrogenous wastes while maintaining homeostasis, all through the formation of urine.

The kidney has a secretory function (filtration of blood in the glomeruli) and excretory from the pyelon (triangle based on the renal hilum) origin of the ureter. We speak of pyelo-ureteral junction. Each kidney contains about 1 million nephron.
