Question

question #18: the person in the diagram is cold so she will shiver to generate body heat. which of the following lists the primary body systems that interact to maintain homeostasis in this scenario? a) nervous, excretory and respiratory b) excretory, digestive, and respiratory c) digestive, muscular and circulatory d) muscular, circulatory and nervous

Explanation:

When a person shivers to generate body heat, the muscular system contracts (shivering) to produce heat. The circulatory system helps distribute the heat throughout the body. The nervous system detects the drop in temperature and initiates the shivering response. These are the primary systems involved in maintaining homeostasis in this situation.

Answer:

D. muscular, circulatory and nervous
