Answer: The body maintains homeostasis by positive and negative feedback mechanism.

Explanation:

The body maintains the internal temperature and metabolism with respect to change in environment.

In case the temperature outside is very cold and the body starts shivering by the movement of skeletal muscles, this is done to maintain the temperature inside body. This is positive feedback.

When the temperature inside the body is maintained, then body stops shivering. This is negative feedback.

This is how the body maintains homeostasis.

Answer:

              1. When a rubbed ruler is brought close to the paper, salt and pepper they are not equally attracted as paper is lighter than pepper and salt, so it takes less effort for paper to overcome the force of gravity.

2. electrostatic induction is a phenomenon in which static electricity is generated in an object by bringing an electrically charged object near it. When a charged object is brought near to an uncharged body it causes electrical charges to redistribute in the body, resulting one side having excess of positive charges and other side having negative charges, as a result body become charged.  Electrostatic interaction also depends upon the nature and mass of body.  

b. the combination of fur cloth and rubbed ruler produce greatest effect. The reason is that when ruler is brought near to fur excess of electron will flow into fur.
