homeostasis

Question 1

what is thermoregulation

Answer 1

Thermoregulation refers to how the body maintains its internal temperature.

If your body temperature becomes too cold or hot, it may lead to severe symptoms and even death.

Question 2

osmoregulation is the process of maintaining what

Answer 2

Osmoregulation is the process of maintaining water and salt concentrations (osmotic balance) across membranes within the body. It is an example of homeostasis in the human body.

Question 3

in glucoregulation what happens after insulin is released

Answer 3

after insulin is released, the decrease in blood glucose levels that are in free circulation is fixed.

this correction occurs only after a lag in which fats are released from storage as an energy source.

It suggests that the release of free fatty acids into the bloodstream is caused by glucagon.

Question 4

blood pressure

Answer 4

blood pressure is the pressure of blood pushing against the walls of your arteries.

arteries carry blood from your heart to other parts of your body.
your blood pressure normally rises and falls throughout the day.

Question 5

what is blood pH

Answer 5

the acidity or alkalinity of blood.

the pH of any fluid is the measure of the hydrogen ion (H-) concentration.

a pH of 7 is neutral. The lower the pH, the more acidic the blood.

Question 6

what is homeostasis

Answer 6

homeostasis is the maintenance of a constant internal environment.

regulating body temperature, blood glucose level and water content are all examples of homeostasis.
