nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Because it plays a major role in regulating body temperature.

Explanation:

The hypothalamus is the heating regulating center of our body which is placed in the hypothalamus. It plays a major role in regulating body temperature, acts as a thermostat and also helps to maintain homeostasis in lots of different ways, for example, by controlling our blood pressure.

When our body cools below the normal temperature it helps to switch up the heat-generating processes and when the body gets overheated it helps to switch off the heat-generating processes.

Imagine that a population of herbivorous animals who dislike the taste of anthocyanin is introduced into the environment of the
Juli2301 [7.4K]
The introduction of the herbivores would disrupt the genetic equilibrium in the population because the herbivores would act as a mechanism of natural selection.
The presence of anthocyanin in the stem is determined by the presence of the dominant allele ANL, so the genotypes of the plants that have anthocyanin are ANL/ANL and ANL/anl. The plants that do not have anthocyanin in their stems are homozygous for the anl allele and the herbivores would eat these plants more often, reducing the frequency of the anl allele in the population.
