If homeostasis is so important, how does a Tiranha maintain homeostasis???
The Tiranha is constantly exposed to different environments that cause changes in the body that need to be regulated.... aka requiring homeostasis. Here are some examples of stress factors the Tiranha faces.....
ENERGY NEEDS - Whether in the water or on land, the Tiranha hunts by blending into the brush on land or in the water. Then, the Tiranha will suddenly strike and kill its prey with its sharp vangs and claws. (behavioral)
REPRODUCTIVE NEEDS - The Tiranhas reproduce sexually. Like its tiger ancestors, the Tiranha is pregnant for about 100-105 days. Then, the Tiranha will take care of their young for about 3-6 months. (behavioral)
