Give examples of the participation of blood in maintaining homeostasis.

First, you need to remember what “homeostasis” is. This is the maintenance of internal consistency in the body. For example – body temperature, amount of fluids, and so on. Blood plays an important role not only for gas exchange and transport of nutrients throughout the body. The blood maintains a certain temperature. If you tighten your finger with an elastic band to prevent blood flowing there, it will quickly change its temperature. You can do this experiment yourself. It shows the role of blood in maintaining homeostasis.
