B. smiling when you are happy

This is not an action that is controlled by the process of homeostasis in the body. Homeostasis is the process which is responsible for regulating the the internal environment of the body.
for instance, you go to the bathroom when your kidneys want to eliminate excess water and other substances.
Your lungs need more air when you are exercising so homeostasis is responsible of seeing that you get enough of it.
and sweating when you are hot to remove excess heat from your body via sweat.
These are all involuntary actions controlled by the process of homeostasis.
Smiling is a voluntary action. you do not need to smile. and you can whenever you like and not when you don't.

Describe neuroendocrine and metabolic aspects of endocrinology

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Given the current environment in most developed countries, it is a challenge to maintain a good balance between calories consumed and calories burned, although maintenance of metabolic balance is key to good health. Therefore, understanding how metabolic regulation is achieved and how the dysregulation of metabolism affects health is an area of intense research. Most studies are focused on the hypothalamus, which is a brain area that acts as a key regulator of metabolism. Among the nuclei that comprise the hypothalamus, the arcuate nucleus is one of the major mediators in the regulation of food intake. The regulation of energy balance is also a key factor to ensure the maintenance of any species because of the dependence of reproduction on energy stores. Adequate levels of energy reserves are necessary for proper functioning of the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis. This review discusses valuable data presented in the 2015 edition of the International Workshop of Neuroendocrinology concerning the fundamental nature of the hormonal regulation of the hypothalamus and the impact on energy balance and reproduction.
