If organ Y becomes unable to produce enough hormone B, then homeostasis would be disrupted. To restore homeostasis and compensate for the lack of hormone B, one useful action would be to

• increase the production of hormone A

• remove organ Y from the body surgically

• reduce the carbohydrates in body system X

• reduce the synthesis of enzymes in organ Y
