There are 3 ways that they maintain homeostasis. Some are behaviorual changes, painting, shade seeking behaviour - to reduce radiation exposurem Nigration - to move to more suitable climates and curling up which reduce surface area to volume ratio. Other include strucual changes which means you can't change them. Large size - for low surface to volume ratio. round shape/short extensions - low surface to area volume ratio. then you have physiological changes this is done by either the hormone system or nervous system. And now the vasioconstruction, which reduce blood flow to extemeties and shivering which intrease metabolic heat produce.

What allows an organism's system to remain in balance?
Homeostasis!
The ability to remain stable is called?
coordination/ homozygous
How do amphibians adapt to their environment?
Reptiles consume materials in their environment, which is one way they interact with their respective environment. Also, all reptiles are cold blooded, so they depend on their environment to regulate their internal body temperature and maintain homeostasis.
What Latin words does homeostasis come from?
From Ancient Greek "homos," meaning similar, and Latin "stare," meaning "to remain."
How did reptiles pave the way for more land animals?
With skin and egg shells able to retain water, reptiles could remain out of water indefinitely, unlike their amphibian ancestors. Mammals and dinosaurs (from which birds evolved) later evolved from reptiles.
Does sweating help your body remain cool and is this a example of homeostasis?
Yes, evapouration of sweat removes vast quantities of heat Yes, when the body is too hot sweating occurs to bring the temperature down again so this is homeostasis.
To maintain homeostasis in the human body the normal ph range of the blood must remain at?
7.35-7.45 in a normal adult
The endocrine system is integrated with what other system to provide coordinated control of the organism?
Nervous and Endocrine system are working together to maintain homeostasis. Homeostasis is a part of a system wherein it is needed to be balanced for your internal body will remain stable or in a good condition.
Do turtles maintain homeostasis?
No. Crocodiles are ectothermic. Like all reptiles, they cannot generate their own body heat (like mammals do) - instead, they need to bask in the sun (or heat lamp in captivity) to raise their temperature to a 'working' level.
How does a cell remain homeostasis?
Cell has 2 meanings: Cell: I am in a jail cell. Cell: How many blood cells do I have? Both are nouns but mean different things
What is the term that means a steady state or state of equilibrium in the body?
Homeostasis
Which term refers to the body's ability to keep internal conditions the same even though conditions in the environment may change?
Regulatory homeostasis
