How does homeostasis and hyperthemia relate?

Hyperthermia interrupts homeostasis. When the body's temperature increases the PH of the blood shifts to become more acid. This interrupts the delicate balance of the body effecting gas exchange, which in turn, has a cascading effect on all of the body's systems. All this takes place while the body is trying to re-correct its temperature changes. Some of these attempts at correction can be seen physically, such as changes in reparations


How can the brain be deprived of oxygen?

The brain becomes deprived of oxygen when the creature depending on the brain fails to breathe. This can be reversed with quick medical attention; otherwise everything shuts down and the creature dies.

How does the liver contribute to homeostasis?

Cirrhosis changes the structure of the liver and the blood vessels that nourish it. The disease reduces the liver's ability to manufacture proteins and process hormones, nutrients, medications, and poisons. Cirrhosis gets worse over time and can become potentially life threatening. This disease can cause: * excessive bleeding (hemorrhage) * impotence * liver http://www.answers.com/topic/cancer * coma due to accumulated ammonia and body wastes (liver failure) * http://www.answers.com/topic/death Cirrhosis is the seventh leading cause of diseaserelated death in the United States.
