Question Detail
Question
Homeostatic control in living things is exerted over all of the following EXCEPT: a. moisture level b. temperature c. acidity level d. response to stimuli
Correct Answer
Option D is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Homeostasis is the maintenance of internal conditions (like moisture, temperature, pH). Response to stimuli is a separate characteristic of life – the ability to react to external or internal signals, not the maintenance of a steady state itself.
Hint
One is about keeping things stable; the other is about reacting.
