Q

Two examples of homeostasis explained:

A
  1. Body temp: if your body temp is too hot, blood vessels will dilate making you sweat to cool you down. If your body temp is too cold, they will constrict to help you retain body heat causing “goose bumps”
    2.Blood sugar: keeps blood sugar regulated based on internal conditions like the amount of carb intake
