Answer:

Homeostasis typically involves negative feedback loops that counteract changes of various properties from their target values, known as set points.

How does a hormone like ADH only know to have an effect on the cells of the kidney and nowhere else?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Vasopressin or antidiuretic hormone (ADH) or arginine vasopressin (AVP) is a nonapeptide synthesized in the hypothalamus. Science has known it to play essential roles in the control of the body’s osmotic balance, blood pressure regulation, sodium homeostasis, and kidney functioning. Given its vital role in multiple functions, it is no surprise that ADH is of great clinical significance. ADH primarily affects the ability of the kidney to reabsorb water; when present, ADH induces expression of water transport proteins in the late distal tubule and collecting duct to increase water reabsorption. Several disease states arise when the body loses control of ADH secretion or responds to its presence.

Bacteria and eukarya are thought to have diverged from archaea. <br> a. True <br> b. False
miv72 [106K]
False. The root of the Eukarya is probably within the Archaea, but this was only discovered six months ago. The consensus hasnt yet shifted from thinking the tree of life has three distinct domains. In any case, bacteria are a separate domain to Archaea.
