An organisms ability to maintain a constant body temperature is due to? accomplish stability by forming an ionic or covalent bond. Ionic bonds are created bytransfer electrons. Covalent bonds are formed when electron(s) in the outer orbit of tatoms are shared- equally or unequally.4. An organisms ability to maintain a constant body temperature is due toA. The hydrogen bond between water molecules.B. The hydrogen bond between water molecules and the amount of heat that musabsorbed to change its temperature by one degree Celsius.C. Water has a high heat of vaporization which explains this ability to maintainconstant body temperature.5. In its effort to maintain the blood pressure, pH and excrete waste, the urinary syfailed to maintain the blood pressure. In response to the situation, the kidney serythropoietin which triggers the red bone marrow to produce red blood cells.this is a negative feedback or a positive feedback response.A. This is a negative feedback situation since the blood pressure leveled out andto completion.B. This was a positive feedback situation since the blood pressure was correctecorrection of the blood pressure was completed.C. This was a negative feedback situation since the blood pressure was returnby the production of red blood cells.6. Explain why water dissolves so many different substances.Wotor dicsolves so many different substances because of its ability t.
