Which best describes body weight regulation in a normal human who is living in a modern society?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Our normal responses of appetite and metabolism tend to cause weight gain in modern societies, and they also tend to make weight loss difficult.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
Our normal responses of appetite and metabolism ensure that adults remain at a given normal body weight. Any change from this normal weight sets in motion responses that return the body to its normal weight.<\/p>\n
