You go for a long walk on a hot day. Give an example of a way in which homeostasis keeps your body healthy.

Homoestasis keeps our body healthy by maintaining its temperature.

Explanation:

Going for a long walk on a hot day will stimulate thermoreceptors in your skin in response to heat and send nerve impulse to the hypothalamus in your brain causing it to release the hormone oxytocin. Oxytocin will stimulate the sweat glands found in the dermis (skin layer) to release stored water. Water will then evaporate through the skin pores, cooling you and maintaining the temperature within its normal healthy range.
