It is not the way of obtaining heat by living organism
Correct answer: D. Sweating
- A. Solar energy
- B. Metabolism
- C. Muscle contraction
- D. Sweating
Explanation
The correct answer is Sweating. Sweating is a process used by organisms to cool down by releasing heat through evaporation of sweat from the skin. In contrast, Solar energy, Metabolism, and Muscle contraction are all processes that can generate or obtain heat for the organism. Solar energy is absorbed directly from the sun, metabolism generates heat as a byproduct of chemical reactions, and muscle contraction produces heat through physical activity.

About Homeostasis
Homeostasis maintains a stable internal environment through the kidney and urinary system, thermoregulation and excretion. The kidney topics include filtration, selective reabsorption, urine formation and water balance, while thermoregulation involves sweating, vasodilation, vasoconstriction and hormonal control; excretion is different from egestion, which removes undigested food.
