"Homeostasis" is the regulation of internal environment. It can be perceived as "same standstill" when translating the prefix and suffix. The word really does fit as it's describing the action of changing things inside your body to keep up with the environment, examples including sweating to cool off and shivering to warm up.

Are gender traits completely a result of societal expectations?
mariarad [96]

Answer:

<em>No</em>. Gender traits in humans are largely determined by biophysical processes. There seems to be a vocal political faction that is trying to convince people in the name of liberty and equality that gender traits are completely learned, and therefore arbitrary. But this claim disagrees with scientific evidence. In general, boys play more with cars and girls play more with dolls not because their parents are perpetuating outdated gender stereotypes, but because their brain is telling them to. This fact does not mean that boys have to play with boy toys, or that boys who play with dolls aren't really boys. It is just a scientific observation about average behavior and its link to fetal development.

Which describes a disruption in the water cycle that could affect photosynthesis?
belka [17]

The right answer is Transpiration.

In plants, plant transpiration is the continuous process caused by the evaporation of water from the leaves (and the corresponding recovery from the roots in the soil).


For large plants and helophytes, it can be very important. On average, a plant loses the equivalent of its weight in water per day. This explains the role played by large plant formations, including forests on the water cycle and climate.
