Homeostasis basically translates to 'keeping the body stable'
the body needs to keep a very stable internal environment:
~our enzymes work at a very specific temperature, so we do everything we can to keep the body at a stable temperature (98.6 F)
~we keep blood sugar at a stable level by releasing insulin when we have a lot of sugar in the blood and glucagon when it is too low
~the kidneys the blood at certain acidity level
~we retain water from urine when the body is dehydrated, and increase urination when the body has too much wate

What is homeostasis give an example?
Homeostasis keeps an organism's internal environment stable, even if the external environment is not. Examples include temperature of the body and the amount of water in the body
Conditions inside an organism that do not change is defined as?
Homeostasis.
Any organism that has a skeletal system is a...?
multicellular organism
What is the ability of an organism to maintain internal conditions called?
Homeostasis
What is the difference between organism and homeostasis?
An organism is a living individual that can carry out all the functions of life, while homeostasis is the ability of an organism to maintain stable internal conditions despite external changes. In other words, an organism is the living being itself, while homeostasis refers to the process that helps the organism maintain internal equilibrium.
Whats one specific living organism maintains homeostasis?
Homeostasis is how a physical environment keeps itself stable. One organism that helps maintain homeostasis is the presence of algae.
What is the ability of an organism to maintain a stable internal environment called?
Homeostasis is the ability of an organism to maintain a stable internal environment despite external changes. It involves processes like temperature regulation, pH balance, and nutrient levels, all of which are necessary for the organism to function properly.
Regulation of an organism's internal environment to maintain conditions suitable for its survival is call?
Homeostasis.
How does a scientist tell if an organism was a vertebrate or not?
by palpation
What is the regulation and maintenance of constant internal conditions in an organism?
I do believe that is homeostasis
What is the term for the ability of an organism to keep things the same?
If you are referring to the process of maintaining the processes within the organism essential for life constantly going, it is called "maintaining homeostasis." so when someone asks, "Watcha doin'?" you can respond, "Maintaining homeostasis." Pumping blood, converting sugar to energy, replicating cells, etc. are all examples of the countless things required in order to maintain homeostasis.
What is the difference between organism at homeostasis?
An organism at homeostasis is in a state of balance and stability within its internal environment, maintaining conditions necessary for survival. On the other hand, an organism not at homeostasis is experiencing an imbalance or disruption in its internal environment, which can lead to negative consequences or health issues.
