Answer -
Hunger:
тАв The stimuli of hunger include stomach contractions, which signify that the stomach is empty.
тАв A low concentration of glucose in the blood
тАв A low level of protein and the amount of fats stored in the body.
тАв The liver also responds to the lack of bodily fuel by sending nerve impulses to the brain.
тАв The aroma, taste or appearance of food may also result in a desire to eat.
тАв They all in combination act with external factors (such as taste, colour by observing otherтАЩs eating, and the smell of food, etc.) to the help one understands that she/he is hungry.
Thirst: When we are deprived of water for a period of several hours, the mouth and throat become dry, which leads to dehydration of body tissues.
тАв Drinking water is necessary to wet a dry mouth.
тАв The processes within the body itself control thirst and drinking of water.
тАв Water must get into the tissues sufficiently to remove the dryness of mouth and throat.
тАв Motivation to drink water is mainly triggered by the conditions of the body.
тАв Loss of water from cells and reduction of blood volume.
тАв When Water is lost by bodily fluids, water leaves the interior of the cells. The anterior hypothalamus contains nerve cells called тАШosmoreceptorsтАЩ, which generate nerve impulses in case of cell dehydration. These nerve impulses act as a signal for thirst and drinking.
Ist View:
тАв The mechanism which explains the intake of water is responsible for stopping the
intake of water.
IInd View:
тАв The role of stimuli resulting from the intake of water in the stomach have something to do with stopping of drinking water.
тАв The precise physiological mechanisms underlying the thirst drive are yet to be understood.
