Sweating and vasodilation of blood vessels.
Shivering and vasoconstriction of blood vessels
Sweating and vasoconstriction of blood vessels.
Shivering and vasodilation of blood vessels.

Homeostasis is a ________ of an internal environment in organisms body to be in ________ and balance condition.
repair , stable
maintenance , stable
repair , higher
maintenance , higher
Which organ acts as a control centre of a homeostasis process?
These are corrective mechanisms when ...
Water level Increases
Water level Decreases
Body temperature increases
Body temperature decreases
Choose Corrective mechanisms when body temperature increases
Hair lies flat
Hair stands erect
Blood vessel dilates
Blood vessel constricts
More sweats is produced
Choose corrective mechanisms when body temperature decreases
Hair Lies flat , blood vessel dilates
Hair stands erect , blood vessel constricts
Skeletal muscles move passively
Skeletal muscle move actively - shivering
decrease sweating
Why our hair will stands erect during cold days?
To increase body metabolism
To trap air which acts as heat insulator
To let more blood flows near skin surface
To cool down skin when sweats is evaporated
the reason for all these corrective mechanisms during homeostasis is to ..
Keep body warm
Cool down body
