Question

match each human condition with the system or chemical that has failed to maintain homeostasis.
drag each item on the left to its matching item on the right.
diarrhea
low blood oxygen
hypothermia
respiratory system
nervous system
digestive system

Explanation:

• Diarrhea: It is related to the digestive system. The digestive system is responsible for processing food and absorbing nutrients. When there is an issue like diarrhea, it means the digestive system is not functioning properly in terms of water and electrolyte balance in the gut.
• Low blood oxygen: This is associated with the respiratory system. The main function of the respiratory system is to take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide. If there is low blood oxygen, it indicates a failure in the respiratory system's ability to supply sufficient oxygen to the blood.
• Hypothermia: This is related to the nervous system. The nervous system (specifically the hypothalamus in the brain which is part of the nervous system) plays a crucial role in thermoregulation. Hypothermia occurs when the body loses heat faster than it can produce it, and the nervous system (thermoregulatory center) has failed to maintain the normal body temperature.

Answer:

• Diarrhea - digestive system
• Low blood oxygen - respiratory system
• Hypothermia - nervous system
