negative tropisms - Answer-growth away from a stimulus Define homeostasis - Answer-Homeostasis is the regulation of internal conditions in the body. It is necessary to maintain optimal conditions for body functioning. These internal conditions can change as a result of processes within the body and as external conditions change. systems responsible for homeostasis - Answer-the nervous system - uses electrical impulses to communicate the endocrine system - uses chemical molecules to commun...

What is homeostasis? - correct answer The maintenance of a constant internal environment. What is a stimulus? - correct answer A change in your environment than requires a response. e.g Light, sound, touch, pressure, pain, chemical or temperature. What do the receptors do? - correct answer Detect the stimulus or change in environment. What happens after the receptors? - correct answer Receptors send messages to the CNS via the sensory neurone. What makes up the central nervous system...

Auxin is a plant hormone produced in the shoot tip. Auxin causes cell elongation and travels down the stem from the tip. Auxin is destroyed by sunlight. Explain how this leads to positive phototropism in the plant. Correct Answer Auxin is broken down on the sunny side of the plant. Cells on the shaded side will elongate due to auxin, causing curvature of the stem so that the plant grows towards the light. Ivy plants often use walls or other plants as a support when growing. State the type of ...

What is a CT scan? - correct answer It shows the shapes of structure in the brain. A x-ray beam moves in a circle around the head. The detector measures the absorption of these xrays. A computer uses this information to build a view of images inside the brain. This is a series of slices. Differences in the shape of the brain can be linked in the differences in which people think and act, suggesting the functions of those parts of the brain. What ...
