What organism is able to maintain its own internal body temperature without help from an outside source?

one example: humans. Water takes longer to heat up then other compounds, and therefore it is easier to keep a stable temperature. (most organisms are made up of mostly water for this reason)

Though they do do this with the delayed help of an outside source, which would be the calories/food they ingest.

Distinguish between external and internal stimuli Give an example of each?
internal is in and external is out
Homeostasis refers to the cells ability to what?
Homeostasis refers to the body (or cell) to maintain a relatively stable environment or balance. For example, keeping balance while on roller skates. For a very simple explanation see the link below:
If humans temperature is 98.6 why is so hot for humans outside at 100 degrees?
Our internal temperature is 98.6 degrees F, but our external temperature is far cooler.
Explain how the internal state of balance is maintained in the body?
An internal state of balance is maintained by a term called "homeostasis". In order for the body to be balanced, it must maintain five functions. (1) atmospheric pressure (2) nutrients (3) oxygen (4) water (5) body temperature. Homeostasis describes the body's ability to maintain relatively stable in internal conditions even though the outside world is constantly changing. For example, when a persons body temperature drops, the hypothalamus (located in the brain: responsible for maintaining body temperature) sends a signal that the body is too cold and the hypothalamus will regulate the body temperature to a normal range. Any kind of homeostatic imbalance in the body could trigger severe illnesses.
What is the differencebetween an endothermic organism and an ectothermic organism?
Ectotherms rely on the outside world for heat and cooling. Endotherms generate their own heat. Ex: A lizard is an ectotherm. A squirrel is an endotherm. Basically, coldblooded=ectotherm and warmblooded=endotherm.
When an organism's outside environment changes through what process the organism maintain a stable internal state?
A stable internal state is maintained by homeostasis. For instance, sweating and the kidneys control our water balance.
When an organism outside environments changes through what process does the organism maintain a stable internal state?
A stable internal state is maintained by homeostasis. For instance, sweating and the kidneys control our water balance.

When a organisms outside environment changes through what process does the organism maintain a stable internal state?
A stable internal state is maintained by homeostasis. For instance, sweating and the kidneys control our water balance.
When an organisms outside environment changes through what process does the organism maintain a stable internal state?
A stable internal state is maintained by homeostasis. For instance, sweating and the kidneys control our water balance.
What is different between internal and external?
Internal is inside the organism External is the surroundings and stuff that happens outside the organism
What is inner structure?
An Internal Structure is the way an organism looks on the outside and an External Structure is the looks on the outside.
What is the process of maintaining a relatively constant internal environment despite changes in the external environment despite changes in the external environment is called?
Homeostasis, which is the maintenance of the conditions in the cell or within the body that maintain life, despite changes that may be occurring on the outside of the body. Such as temperature. The body will maintain a internal temperature of approx. 98*6 even if it is 108 degrees or -20 below outside the body.
What is an example of regulation in biology?
The regulation of blood flow in an organism (such as deer) help the organism regulate the temperature by adjusting to the outside temperature.
Is Homeostasis the maintenance of constant internal conditions in spite of changes in the environment?
Yes. Homeostasis means that the organism's internal environment changes so it is not influenced by the outside environment.
Homeostasis refers to the cells ability to what?
Homeostasis refers to the body (or cell) to maintain a relatively stable environment or balance. For example, keeping balance while on roller skates. For a very simple explanation see the link below:
How does the outside temperature affect the body temperature?
The outside temperature affects the body temperature because it the body temperature will try to regulate itself. For example, if the temperature outside is cold, the body will generate heat as much as possible to maintain a core temperature.
