In these system‚ the output shut off the original stimulus or reduce its intensity. These mechanisms cause the variable to change in a direction opposite to that of the initial change‚ returning it to its “ideal”

    Homeostasis is the body’s ability to maintain a constant balance between the internal environment and external environment at a constant rate‚ despite changes which may affect our external environment such as body temperature and the amount of water in our bodies. By keeping this internal balance it allows our bodies to function efficiently. The negative feedback loop is produced when changes to our internal environment changes from its normal range. In this instance the brain and the nervous system

    Homeostasis is defined as the adjustments a body makes to maintain an environment conducive to life. All of the organ systems in the human body must maintain a steady internal environment for the body to function properly. The factors that need to be controlled are water and salt content‚ PH balance‚ oxygen‚ sugar‚ protein‚ body temperature‚ and blood and glucose concentration. The basic principle of homeostasis is when there is an abnormal internal condition‚ it will be detected and a variation
