-homeostasis is the regulation of an internal environment
-negative feedback is the counteraction to changes in the body that differ from a set point
-thermoregulation is the process of maintaining a steady body temperature
-sweating and shivering are mechanisms used to regulate temperature
-osmoregulation is the process of maintaining water and salt concentrations within the body
-the nervous system is a connected network of cells, tissues and organs that control thoughts, movement and simple processes within the body
-reacts to stimulus and compensates for it
-the respiratory system controls gas exchange within the body
-regulates the amount of carbon dioxide in the body
-if homeostasis is disrupted then a person may get sick and die
Negative Feedback Loops
-thermoregulation
-once the body temperature is normal the actions stop-blood sugar regulation
-hormones used:
-insulin → lowers blood sugar by storing sugar in cells
-glucagon → raises blood sugar by releasing sugar from cells
