Question

12. Which of the following is the best example of an
organism maintaining homeostasis?
A.
a wolf panting after a chase
B.
a spider catching an insect in a web
C.
a cricket becoming infected by a virus
D.
a mole digging tunnels in the ground

Answer 1

Answer:

I would say A.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is pretty much a state of rest or equilibrium. Only A counts, as that wolf is trying to catch its breath and lower its breathing rate and heart rate.

(I could be wrong if B counts. Ya know, if the spider needs to stop being hungry?)
