Popcorn sold at most movie theaters is very salty, causing people to become thirsty and buy soft drinks. Describe in scientific terms why the salty popcorn causes this thirst. You should mention changes in specific body cells in your answer.
The salt in the popcorn makes it so the concentration of water outside of your cheek / mouth cells is lower than the concentration of water inside of them. This then causes water to diffuse out of your cheek / mouth cells as it moves from a higher to a lower concentration.

How does an increased pulse rate help to maintain homeostasis?
It allows for more oxygen and food to be delivered to cells and allows for more carbon dioxide and waste to be taken away from cells
