Examine one interaction between cognition and physiology in terms of behaviour. Cognition is the mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought‚ experience‚ and the senses. Physiology refers to the way the organisms work in response. These interactions between a cognitive process and physiology create human behavior. one example of this interaction is the way mirror neurons work and how the body acts in response to these neurons. A mirror neuron is a neuron

Introduction: Homeostasis is the tendency of the body to seek and maintain equilibrium‚ a state of balance‚ within its internal environment. Endotherms are “warm blooded” animals that produce and maintain their own internal body heat. Most mammals and a few birds‚ are endotherms; this is beneficial because the enzymes in the body that carry out metabolic processes have an optimum temperature at which they function‚ having the body constantly be‚ or be close to‚ this optimum internal temperature
