Document Summary
Body colour: in the beginning, our subject"s skin color was light yellow throughout. However, after several minutes of exercise, we started to notice the skin tone on his face was paler than before, and the skin color and his legs and arms were slightly pink. These changes contribute to the maintenance of homeostasis in the body because since the subject is moving vigorously during exercise, blood flow is significantly allocated towards the muscles being used as supposed to other areas. This is because the increased blood flow helps provide the necessary nutrients and increased levels of oxygen to the muscles that are being used, so that they can continue to function out of their normal range. Perspiration level: in the beginning, our subject had a perspiration level of zero, but as the time of exercise progressed, his levels of perspiration began to increase.
