Answer: Homeostasis is energy-consuming physiological mechanism.

Homeostasis is the property of a system in which a variable is actively regulated to remain very nearly constant. Each of these variables is controlled by a separate homeostat ( regulator ) which together maintains life.

Core Body Temperature Homeostat

Mammals have the ability to control their core temperature. When core body temperature falls, behavioral changes are set in motion. The blood flow is reduced to a minimum via sympathetic nerves, which constrict the limb arteries. The metabolic rate of the body is increased.

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Lysosomes

Explanation:

Lysosomes are the organelles that have many digestive enzymes such as those for digestion of lipids and proteins. Most of the vesicles that bring substances into the cells by phagocytosis or endocytosis fuse with lysosomes. For example, the vesicles formed during receptor-mediated endocytosis fuse with lysosomes so that LDL particles and other substances are digested by the enzymes of lysosomes. The digested products then leave lysosomes so that cells can use them.
