Homeostasis and Feedback Systems

Written by:
How does the body remain stable while everything around us changes?
We explore homeostasis and the sensors, control centers, and effectors that regulate variables such as temperature, blood glucose, and blood pressure. We also explain negative feedback and amplifying feedback mechanisms, showing how the body constantly responds, corrects, and adapts.
