Answer:

Homeostasis

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the maintenance of a steady-state/condition in the body to ensure the optimal workings of the cells. Blood sugar level is one of the variables in the body that also has to be maintained through  positive and negative feedback loops to maintain the desired level. Insulin is the hormone used for negative feedback (to reduce the blood sugar level when it goes higher than the normal level) and Glucagon is the hormone for positive feedback (to raise the blood sugar level when it goes below the normal levels).

romanna [79]

Answer:

d. The pH of the beaker`s contents will decrease.

Explanation:

Since the new substance is an acid and has a very low pH, that is 1. it will reduce a little bit the pH of the original base (NaOH). Some ions of hydrogen of the acid are going to react with the hydroxyl group of the sodium hydroxide to form water.

Since the differences of the volume is big, only a small part of the base is going to be neutralize, but at the end, the final pH of the solution is still going to be  a base.

Hope this information is useful.
