Question

select the true statements. it does not take much energy to maintain homeostasis. homeostasis ensures that an organisms internal environment matches the outside environment. organisms have systems in place to maintain a stable internal environment. homeostasis allows an organisms cells to survive.

Explanation:

• Homeostasis is the process by which organisms maintain a stable internal environment. This stability is crucial for the survival of an organism's cells.
• Organisms have systems in place to maintain this stable internal environment, which is different from the outside environment.
• Maintaining homeostasis does require energy, so the statement "It does not take much energy to maintain homeostasis" is false.
• The internal environment of an organism is regulated to be different from the outside environment, not to match it. So the statement "Homeostasis ensures that an organism's internal environment matches the outside environment" is false.

Answer:

• "Homeostasis allows an organism's cells to survive" is a true statement.
• "Organisms have systems in place to maintain a stable internal environment" is a true statement.
