Explanation:

Homeostasis, from the Greek words for "same" and "steady," refers to any process that living things use to actively maintain fairly stable conditions necessary for survival. The term was coined in 1930 by the physician Walter Cannon.

Examples include thermoregulation, blood glucose regulation, baroreflex in blood pressure, calcium homeostasis, potassium homeostasis, and osmoregulation.

PROCESS OF HOMEOSTASIS IN THE HUMAN BODY

Homeostasis refers to the body's ability to maintain a stable internal environment (regulating hormones, body temp., water balance, etc.). ... As the body works to maintain homeostasis, any significant deviation from the normal range will be resisted and homeostasis restored through a process called a feedback loop.

Answer:

Hi there :)

Explanation:

HOMEOSTASIS

A property of cells, tissues, and organisms that allows the maintenance and regulation of the stability and constancy needed to function properly.

- In simple terms,  Homeostasis is any self-regulating process by which an organism tends to maintain stability while adjusting to conditions that are best for its survival. If homeostasis is successful, life continues; if it's unsuccessful, it results in a disaster or death of the organism.

Hope it helps :)

The medial cord is medial to the axillary artery and is formed by the ______ division of the inferior trunk; it contains portion
SpyIntel [72]

The medial cord is formed by the anterior division of the inferior trunk.

It contains portions of nerves C8-T1.

             The medial cord is present in our neck and is a part of the brachial plexus. It is formed by the anterior division of the lower trunk. It is called the medial because it is medial to the axillary artery.

              The medial cord leads to the formation of the medial pectoral nerve, medial cutaneous nerve of the arm, and medial cutaneous nerve of the forearm.

               The nerves labeled as C refer to the nerves affecting the motor system in our neck and upper limb. Thus nerves from C8 work for the motor conventions of our upper limb and neck.

              The nerves labeled as T are spread over our chest, shoulders, and hands. Thus, the nerve T1 works in the upper part of our body.
