Which of the following is not a homeostatic response? In a contest, a student eats an entire chocolate cake in 10 minutes, and his blood glucose level does not change dramatically. b. A jogger is sweating after a two-mile jog. c. The pupils in humans' eyes constrict when looking at a light. d. Physical activity increases carbon dioxide blood levels, which lowers blood $\mathrm{pH}$, and increases breathing. Oxytocin is released by the hypothalamus during human childbirth.
