BTEC Applied Science Unit 9B: Homeostatic control of body systems. Homeostasis- The constant maintenance of a constant internal environment within an organism. One’s body needs to sustain its internal condition at certain levels to function. Homeostasis is called the preservation of internal conditions such as pH, temperature, and salt concentration in a stable equilibrium. Homeostasis is also known as a process of self-regulation by which an organism seeks to preserve equilibrium when ada...

homeostasis - correct answer-the tendency of an organism to maintain a stable internal environment, though the external environment changes reflex control - correct answer-long distance control of homeostasis, using either neural or hormonal signals local control - correct answer-control of homeostasis at a cellular level, isolated changes in a few cells or a tissue (i.e. environment of the cell, fluid level, etc) input, controller, output - correct answer-3 major components of homeosta...

BTEC Applied Science Unit 9B: Homeostatic control of body systems. Homeostasis calls for a high degree of monitoring and control; to detect internal and external changes and respond stimuli, hormones and nervous system communicate to bring about changes that brings symptoms back to the correct level. How is does hormones and nervous system helps homeostatic? The endocrine and nervous system are crucial for homeostasis. Endocrine transmits information through hormones which travels through t...
