Your body would eventually adapt to the cold, but homeostasis would take some part. Your body would shiver when you get cold to try to stay in a steady state. Your body tries to restore heat to keep warm. Your skin may dry up or pale a little, skin cells die.

my body would respond by going hrough homeosasis, which is when your body is maintaining a stable internal enviornment. your body would do this by shivering to keep yourself warm

If I'm locked out of my house in a cold weather my body will respond alacriously. Since the environment's temperature is very low and my body temperature can't be low as the weather, the homeostasis will stabilize the body's temperature as much as it can to prevent my body temperature from dropping. It will also give me goosebumps too prevent coldness. My body will respond promptly to keep my body's temperature at a safe and constant rate from the cold weather.
Michael Vitale 2p. If you are this sort of enviornment, your bodie will react to the stimulus by shivering or chattering to create heat.

because of the environment that you are in is cold the responce from your body maybe drastic. to make the tempitor of you body more stable you will shiver. also you will get goose bumps where ever you have exposed skin that grows hair. that is your arms and legs. this happens to all homostasises ...
My body responds to this situation by the process of homeostasis. Homeostasis is the process by which a organsim can react to a change in the environment.My body responds by creating its own heat but results in shivering.In order to the body back to its stable enviroment the body must react to chnages in the enviroment around them.
As you are standing outside in the cold and in response you begin is shiver and your teeth start to chatter. You are holding your arms and jumping up and down. Then you begin to feel a little warmer but not much. Homeostasis is beginning to kick in. Once homeostasis kicks in your body tries to maintain a stable internal environment. You are now out in the cold for half and hour. You are still cold, obviously, but you are adapting over time to the cold. If you stay outside for too long without and proper equipment hypothermia, which is an organism's temperature drops below that required for normal metabolism and bodily functions, can happen. If you become hypothermic normal homeostasis will kick in but sometime it doesn’t do it fast enough and you could freeze to death.

Homework:
If it was a cold winter day and all I had on was a sweater and jeans, my body would have several differennt reactions.
One response my body would have to the environment is homeostasis. Since it would be cold out, my body would be trying to warm up. The way that my body would do this is shivering. The shivering would cause my temperature to stablize and I would be warmer.
Another reaction my body would have is for my skin to dry out. Since the air doesn't have as much moisture and is dry, my body's reaction would be to dry up. To help prevent my skin from drying out, I would have to adapt by staying hydrated and using some type of moisturizer.
On a cold winter day, if i find myself locked out of my house and all i have on is a sweater and jeans, then my body will respond to this situation in several ways. My body would be cold --> the stimulus. I would be shaking, shivering, my face will turn red --that would be my response to stimuli. Homeostasis - the ability to maintain a stable internal condition inspite of changes in the external environment. With only a sweatshirt and jeans on, during a cold winter day, my homeostasis wouldnt be stable because i wouldnt have any clothing/materials keeping my body warm. Animals, have fur to keep them warm during the winter. My response to the exterrnal enviromnet will differ depending on what my surroundings are. If im wearing long sweat pants and a long sleeve shirt on a hot summer day, then i'll be hot/sweating. By wearing a pair of jeans and a sweater on a cold day, my homeostasis wouldnt be under control because my response to the environment would be maintained, because i wasnt wearing the proper clothing. By wearing the appropriate clothes for different climates, your body will respond accordingly.
On a cold winter day all i have on is a sweater and jeans...
First my body will tel my brain that i am cold and that there is a dcrease in my body tempature so then my brain respond and tell my body to start shivering and try and warm up. This will happen to the effects of body responing to stmulis.

On a cold winter day you find yourself locked out of the house and all you have on is a sweater and jeans. You would respond by feeling very cold.
Since the environment outside is cold on a winter day and you are only wearing jeans and a sweater, your body temperature might change due to the cold. Your body will respond and react to the cold by getting goose bumps on your arms and your whole body shivering. Maintaining a stable internal environment requires constant adjustments as conditions change. Since you only have a sweater and jeans on, your body will try to stay warm and try to adapt to the environment, therefore trying to get your normal body temperature back. This is called homeostasis, which is the maintenance of a constant internal environment in an organism.

On a cold winter day, while wearing just a sweater and jeans outside, my body would react differently. First, i would find my body shiver; trying to keep up my body temperature ( normal body temperature is 98.6 degree F). Secondly, I would find myself moving around a lot also trying to keep my temperature up. I might also find my myself rubbing my hands together.
Human bodies would have many responses to help your body temperature up to 98.6 degree F. The cold environment brings your body out of homeostasis. Therefore, your body tries to create fiction to keep your stable body temperature that the normal level.
If i was locked outside my house on a cold winter day and all i had on was a sweater and jeans, i would try to keep moving to keep my blood flowing and to try to stay warm. My body would respond by trying to stay warm with my own body heat. Homeostasis would apply because my body would try to keep my internal and external body normally heated. Although i'm not sure why i wouldn't have a jacket on, on a cold winter day. If i could i would also call my mom or a friend to either let me in, bring me the keys or to go to a friends house until my mom gets home.

If i was outside in the winter in my jeans and sweeter. My body would respond by being cold or maybe shivering. After i get in my house i would probally get sick because i wasn't wearing the proper cotheing outside.
Alexandria B period3
Your body will try to make heat so yo wont get sick like a bad cold or something. When your body tries to make heat then you can get goose bumps on your skin. You can start to shiver as your body works hard to get your tempature back to normal. joseph ebiotu period 2
If i was locked out of my house on a cold winter day my body would respond to this situation by homeostasis. This means i would start shivering, and the cold wind would dry out my skin. Another response would be, my nose would probably start to run. This is because its one of the reactions of being out when its cold.

On a cold winter day with only jeans and a sweater on our body will respond to the change in the temperature surrounding our environment by trembling and shivering. Our homeostasis or balance in our body changes to combat the cold. Over a period of time the body temperature will drop and the body will work harder to generate heat in an attempt to make our body temperature more stable. If we are exposed to real frigid temperatures over a long period of time frostbite could affect the body. Frostbite will develop when the cold temperatures damages our skin tissue and blood vessels. Frostbites can cause the skin to feel frozen or numb. Frostbite normally occurs in our ears, nose, cheeks, and fingers and toes because these are the body parts that are mostly exposed to the cold temperature and wind. Even though we wear shoes and boots, the cold will eventually penetrate through causing the toes to be frostbitten.
-Victoria Eng
If i was locked out of my house on a old winter day, alot will happen to my body if i was only wearing a sweater and jeans. My body will not be provided with the warmth it needs so i could freeze to death. My imune sytem will not be stable if it is not kept in the temperature it needs. The imune system can go out of control because of the environment i am in. So i could freaze very badly, and my imune sstem will not be kept warm.

If I was to find myself locked out of my house and all I had on was a sweater and jeans then I wouldn’t be very warm. I would have some chills which would make my body temperature go down and my response from that would make me cold. The environment is cold and in order to make me warm I would either go inside for shelter or I would make myself warm by wearing extra clothing, if I had any. My body will be trying to make me warm but if I stay out there too long then eventually I will get sick.
If I was locked out of my house on a winter day in only jeans and a sweater,homeostasis would burst into action!It would respond by giving me goosebumps and I'd start shivering so my body could be in a more stable enviornment.

If I was locked out of my house on a cold winters day with only a pair of jeans and a sweater on since the ENVIRONMENT is chilly out, my body would respond to it in a NEGATIVE FEEDBACK LOOP. Since my body temperature is increasing or decreasing this is a negative effect because after a certain amount of time spent outside, my bodies temperature will either decrease or increase due the heat held within my body and the temperature outside. The effects that could occur are either my body beginning to shake because of how chilly it is, or sweating because of the heat and cold combining.

Your body responds in different ways to try to keep you warm. One way is your body responds to the stimulus. The stimulus is the cold weather around you, so your body's response is creating goose bumps to try to keep the temperature inside your body the same. This can also be called, homeostasis. Homeostasis is the process which the human body tries to maintain a constant internal state to the changing enviornment around you.

At first your body would not feel that cold for a while. Depending on the temperature it will get colder and colder as time goes by.The bodies homeotasis will react to the temperature and the dynamic equlibrium. The external environment will begin to respond to the cold temperature. Your nose will begin to drip with fluid over time your body will obtain a fever because it is trying to bring your temperature down. Worst results can consist of flu, frost bite, and an amonia.
Since Homeostasis is the balace of the body it will try to keep it from going to hot or too cold in this case to cold. My body will react to the stimulus by having goose bumps which will try to keep my body from going to a low temperature and it will respond by shivering will do the same effect(trying to keep the body worm).
But when you are out for to long homeostasis will try to have your body maintain a stable internal enviornment but soon after with out the proper clothing ur body will catch hypothermia which causes the body temperature to drop very low which is deadly.
If I was locked out of my house on a cold winter day my body would react by shiering. my body would get use to the enviornment and be able to work so that my body would no be as cold.

Your body would respond to this by going through homeostasis. This would be to maintain a stable internal environment despite the external environment. For example, your body would shiver to keep yourself warm.

My body would respond by shivering, which is an attempt to keep myself warm. Another word for it would be homeostasis. Homeostasis is when your body is trying maintain a stable internal environment. The homeostasis protects my body temperature from dropping lower or higher from the temperature outside.

Everyones body would respond by going threw a process called homeostasis which is when you shiver but eventually adapt to the environment you are in; which in this situation is outside, on a cold winter day while only wearing a sweater and jeans.(:

If I am wearing only a sweater and jeans during a cold winter day, I would go through homeostasis. It helps my body maintain a stable internal environment. My body will response to this by shivering and getting goose bumps. It is trying to help my body keep warm and safe from the cold.

If I was locked out of my house in the freezing cold with nothing but a wool sweater on (which probably wouldn't be the only thing I'm wearing, but whatever), my body would respond by going through homeostasis. My body would begin to shiver, which will try to keep me warm and restore heat within my body.

after a while your body would adjust, but homeostasis would take some part in the beginning. Your body would shiver and create goosebumps, and your nose would run when you get cold to try to stay in a dynamic equilibrium.

If i was locked out of my house on a cold day, my body would go through homeosasis to try and keep a even body temperature. My body would do this by bunching my skin tightly together to try and keep me warm.
-Marc S. period 4
At first, my body wouldn't adapt to the coldness, but eventually it will respond by going through homeosasis. My body will keep warm by shivering.
Your body will eventually adapt to the enviroment and homeostatis will take apart of it. Your body will begin to shiver and start to shake, and even begin chattering, to try to create that heat that is needed.

On a cold winter day you lock yourself outside your house your body will go through alot of changes. Your body will feel fine for a while but as time goes by it will get colder and colder. Your body will respond by sniffling and your nose will begin to produce fluid. Eventually your body will try to maintain a stable condition by getting a fever that ia apart of homeostasis. The worst results could end in a amonia or frost bite.

On a cold winter day if I was locked out of my house and all I had on was a sweater and jeans my body would have goosebumps and i would shiver.My body would go through hemostasis, which is the maintenance of this internal stability . My body would develop dry skin and my body would try to restore heat.
