Question

Which is the process of maintaining a steady state inside the body?

scurvy

anemia

dehydration

homeostasis

Answer 1

The answer would be homeostasis

Answer 2

Homeostasis is correct.

Homeostasis can be defined as “a relatively stable equilibrium between interdependent relationships.”

However anemia, scurvy, & dehydration are due to a deficiency or lack of something in the body. This would not be “maintaining a steady state.”
