The components of the human body, from organ systems to cell organelles, interact to maintain a balanced internal environment. To successfully accomplish this task, organisms possess many different receptors that detect deviations in the body's internal state and initiate corrective actions.

In which of the following ways does the body respond to an increase in skeletal muscle cell activity?

by converting white bloods cells to red blood cells

by increasing the heart rate

by increasing the respiratory rate

by producing less hemoglobin

Areli Pitts · Answer 1

The correct answer is by increasing the rate of respiration and heart rate.

The conditions in the body are monitored, to maintain a steady internal environment. This is known as homeostasis. The conditions, which must be monitored, include water content, the temperature of the body, level of carbon dioxide, and blood sugar level.

Homeostasis is the sustenance of the steady internal environment. Automatic control systems all through the body maintain water and temperature at constant levels that are needed for the cells to work adequately.

Are you able to select more than one choice? Because the body would increase both the heart rate and the respiratory rate.
