The correct answer is A. maintaining homeostasis.
Homeostasis is a term referring to an organisms continuous process of maintaining and auto-regulating the conditions of its internal environment. Variables such as pH, temperature, and fluid balance need to be at optimal conditions in order for the organism to function properly.
In this example, the phosphate buffer system permits the organisms to maintain a constant pH in their intracellular fluid. This is one of the organism's homeostatic mechanisms.
There are several costs associated with using wind turbines to generate electricity.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Using wind turbines to generate electricity comes with the cost of installation of the turbines. A suitable site for installation has to be selected and windmills of the required height are installed. Cost of maintenance is another cost associated with the usage of wind turbines.
The windmills are subjected to several environmental factors like rainfall, sunlight etc. These can cause damage to the windmills. Thus a regular maintenance of the turbines is essential.
Cost of procuring appropriate land for installation of wind turbines is another associated cost. Locations apt for harnessing wind energy are limited. Moreover the windmills have to be set up across a large area to produce energy in a decent scale.
D is probably right cos you are comparing data
