Answer:

C. Sending a message to the pituitary gland to start producing a hormone when the levels in the body are too low

Explanation:

It's not A, because that's the nervous system, not endocrine.

It's not B, because homeostasis = balance, and not stopping production isn't balance

It's not D, because that's the nervous system again.

The endocrine system governs hormones.

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The correct answer is- Rationalization

Explanation:

Rationalization is a defense mechanism that involves the action to justify their unobvious behaviors by logical reasons to avoid true explanation. For example, if an employee is not given promotion might rationalize his disappointment by saying that he does not want extra responsibilities.

Rationalization may help the person to avoid guilt and maintain self-respect when he has done something wrong. Many times rationalization is not harmful to the person but if it becomes a habit of a person it can cause a problem for him and others. Therefore the correct answer is rationalization.

Part 1: Why is Fresh Water in Short Supply?
shepuryov [24]

Part 1;

Because there is only limited amounts of fresh water on the Earth the rest is salt water; which humans can not survive on as the salt dehydrates our bodies instead of hydrates.

1) The more we try to get the the fresh water the more we will likely make more pollution.

2) The more we use the less there is.

3) Everything needs water.

Part 2; no idea I believe it is the ice caps, as it is fresh water in the ice caps and not a lot of humans up there to pollute the runoff.
