Set point refers to the optimal weight range or body size that your body is designed to function. According to the theory, the human body fights bodily changes and tries to maintain homeostasis by altering body fat or metabolism. Our body can also be affected by other factors such as environmental toxins.

What can you infer about a species that has a random pattern of distribution over space? A uniform pattern?
Leona [35]

The individual organisms that frame a population are additional or less equally spaced, spread every which way with no predictable pattern, or clustered in teams. These are called the uniform, random, and clumped dispersion patterns.   Uniform refers to the evenly distributed population, random means random spacing and clumped shows the distribution in clusters.

Food supply and resources are directly proportional to a particular distribution pattern. Random distribution occurs when several pollen grains of some flowers were carried by wind or bees. These flowers will then bloom where they were scattered.
