Homeostasis and response
Homeostasis maintains stable internal conditions through control and coordination by the nervous and endocrine systems. The brain, eyes, and hormones regulate body temperature, blood glucose, water, and nitrogen balance. Negative feedback loops help adjust these processes. Hormones also support reproduction and fertility. Plants use hormones to adapt to their environment, completing the complex system of homeostasis and response.
