Question

Karin was exposed to extremely cold temperatures and was diagnosed with a homeostatic disorder. Which symptoms does she most likely have?

frequent thirst and urination
decreased heart rate and memory loss
blurred vision and high blood sugar
hot, itchy skin and nausea

Answer 1

I found a bit of information on this subject, Source 1 says Diseases which result from a homeostatic imbalance include diabetes, dehydration, hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, hypothermia or heatstroke  

Source 2 says:

The consequence of an imbalance could have wide ranging ramifications running from diabetes to dehydration, high blood pressure, etc..

We have two viable options, Frequent thirst and urination would be reasonable, since dehydration is a main point in Homeostatic Disorder. Blurred vision and high blood pressure might apply because Homeostatic disorder causes diabetes, and hyperglycemia, which is a lot of sugar in the blood.

Decreased heart rate and memory loss don't really apply since memory loss isn't really a factor in homeostatic disorder. Hot, itchy skin and nausea seems exactly the opposite of what triggered her homeostatic disorder so I wouldn't go with that either.

I would go with either 1. Blurred vision and high blood pressure or 2. Frequent thirst and urination in that order.

Answer 2

Answer:

decreased heart rate and memory loss

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the process by which the organism maintains constant internal conditions necessary for life. The term is applied to the set of processes that prevent variations in the physiology of an organism.

Although external conditions are subject to variation, homeostatic mechanisms ensure that the effects of these changes are minimal for organisms. When there is disturbance to homeostasis, the external conditions can cause sudden changes in the organism that can trigger several problems. Among these problems, we can mention the decrease in heart rate and memory loss.
