Essay Item Chapter 13: Homeostasis and Human Urinary System (I)

Biology
1 answer:

Answer:

Adrenaline

Explanation:

The adrenaline glands, located on top of both kidneys, are glands that produce hormones to regulate blood pressure, bodily functions, metabolisms, etc. Adrenaline is released whenever the blood is redirected towards the muscles, causing surges of energy. In general, adrenaline increases blood flow in your body, which causes the heartbeat to increase, or give the feeling of a racing heart. Between the football players and the heartbeat rate, they are getting rushes of adrenaline from either participating in the game or cheering on their team from the sidelines. Hope that made sense.

How could the tomato plants response to being eaten by a hornworm caterpillar be described as a function of homeostasis
sesenic [268]

Answer:

First, it's important to get clear on the meaning of Homeostasis.

In simple terms, it refers to the capacity of a living thing (plant or animal) to react or behave in such a way that enables it to continue to survive irrespective of changes in its immediate environment.

       

Explanation:

In humans, the body has a system which reacts to the external stimuli of temprature. When the weather is hot, the brain through a sequence of electrical and chemical signals tells the skin to open up the pore, then we experience venting of sweating which cools the body and regulates internal heat. This is an instance of homeostasis.

This does not mean that the plant or animal is completely immune to such external changes.

In the case of the tomato plant, the hair on the leaves and stem of the plant is an example of Homeostatic responses which have evolved over the years to discourage predators such as the hornworm caterpillar from defoliating the plant.

Cheers!
