The body regulates the levels with homeostasis
1. acid base balance- AMOUNTS of acidity and bases
2. body temp- normal body temp is 98 F
3. glucose concentration -refers to sugar in bloodstream

Answer from: catherine51

The three levels:

Glucose blood level.

Blood glucose level's regulation is mainly provided by two hormones produced by the pancreas, insulin and glucagon.

These two hormones have antagonistic effects: insulin lowers blood sugar by promoting the use and storage of glucose, while glucagon causes its release into the blood by the liver. The level of glucose in the blood, which is normally about 5 millimoles per liter (or 1 gram per liter), can be measured by blood test.

Temperature regulation.

Thermoregulation is the set of mechanisms that allows an organism or system to maintain a desired temperature. It is the result of production and loss of heat energy.

In the living world, we distinguish homeothermic organisms (have an effective thermoregulation allowing a control of their temperature) poikilothermes organisms (organisms whose internal temperature varies with the temperature of their environment). The thermoregulation is done by thermolysis (heat loss) and thermogenesis (heat production).

In humans, the average normal body temperature is 37 ° C (between 36.5 ° C and 37.5 ° C depending on the individual).

Osmolarity:

Osmotic concentration (or osmolarity) is the measurement of the concentration of a solution, a colloid or a chemical compound, expressed in number of "osmotically active" particles (osmoles) per liter. This size makes it possible to measure the osmotic pressure of a solution and thus to determine the diffusion of the solvent through a semipermeable membrane (osmosis). Its physiological value is between 280 and 300 mOsm / L in the blood plasma.

Answer from: Quest

Glucose, also called grape sugar, blood sugar or corn sugar, is among the simplest and one of the primary naturally occurring sugars. produced naturally by plants as the primary photosynthesis product, it is heavily used by living beings as a main energy source and is necessary for cellular respiration. chemically, it is a monosaccharide carbohydrate and serves as a building block for complex sugars like starch.

Seen in some gram-positive bacilli, occurs when only the inner portion of a cell wall is deposited across the dividing cell. this new cross wall puts tension on the outer layer of the old cell wall. eventually, the outer wall breaks at its weakest point with a snapping movement that tears it most of the way around. the daughter cells can then remain hanging together almost side by side being held by a small remnant of the original outer wall. choose from the following statements the ones that correctly discuss reproduction using binary fission in a bacterial cell. select all that apply. view available hint(s) select all that apply. due to the stretching of the cytoplasmic membrane, both cells will contain a complete genome. each daughter cell will contain an equal number of organelles. the daughter cell will be a permanently smaller copy of the mother cell but will contain a complete genome. each daughter cell is an exact copy of the other, both genetically and morphologically
