The kidneys is controlled by hormones and by the composition of the urine since the hormone released is called ADH which is produced by the pituitary gland.
Answer:
0.1
Explanation:
To calculate this, scientists use a formula called the biodiversity index in order to describe how much are the species of a given area diverse. It is calculated by taking the number of species in the area and divided by the total number of individuals in that area. This gives us the biodiversity index.
In this example, there are 15 species in an area and we divide that by 150 organisms to get a 0.1 biodiversity index.

Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Homeostasis refers to the maintenance of relatively constant internal body processes. This is done in two ways
- <em>Negative feedbacks</em>
- <em>Positive feedbacks</em>
Negative feedback returns body processes back to normal after the process has been breached. An example is when the body temperature becomes too high or too low. At too high temperature, vasodilation of the skin's blood vessels occurs and more heat is lost to the surrounding from the skin, sweat is also produced by sweat glands and evaporation of the seat causes cooling. At too low temperature, vasoconstriction occurs leading to the conservation of more heat. The muscles also shake to generate more body heat
Positive feedback ensures that a breach of body processes reaches completion. An example is when a pregnant woman starts laboring. The increase in the amount of oxytocin in the blood leads to the contraction of the uterus consequently leading to the opening of the cervix. More and more oxytocin leads to more frequent and stronger contraction of the uterus untill the baby is born.
