Question
Chapter 25.2, Problem 7WDL
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The stimuli which activate the thirst center in the human body.
Concept introduction:
The thirst centers are controlled by the centers in the hypothalamus in the brain. These centers control the activation and inhibition of thirst centers in the brain. These regions are activated when the fluid intake is less as compared to the fluid output in the human body.
