IT IS KNOWN AS HOMEOSTASIS.
Homeostasis is the process by which living organisms maintain a relatively constant internal environment. Maintaining a stable internal environment is very important in living cells because the biochemical reactions of the cells depend on it. If the internal environment is not maintained at equilibrium, the enzymes which catalyze biochemical reactions in the cells will be affected and this will leads to disruptions in the living system. This can lead to the death of the cells, thus is vital that the internal environment be kept constant at all time.

Answer: Filtration

Blood that is going to be filtered enters the first part of the nephron, the glomerulus, which is a tuft of capillary vessels. The glomerulus is inside a "sac" called a glomerular capsule.Together, the glomerulus and the glomerular capsule form the renal corpuscle, which is the filtering unit.

A heterozygous, three-horned alien from Mercury has met and fallen in love with a four-horned alien from Jupiter. What would hap

Gnesinka [82]

Because the three-horned alien is heterozygous, we know that three must be dominant to four, because the gene for the three horns is "hiding" the gene for four horns. Therefore, the three-horned alien has the genotype Tt (T for three horns, and t for four horns). The four horned alien must be tt, because that is the only way that a recessive trait may be seen. If you solve the punnet square on a cross between Tt and tt, you end up with half three (heterozygous) and half four (homozygous recessive) it is a bit easier to explain with something a little "closer to home" if you want me to explain it again, just say so, I don't mind!
