Detailed explanation-1: -Homeostasis is the regulation of the internal conditions within cells and whole organisms such as temperature, water, and sugar levels. This keeps cells and organisms functioning at optimal levels even when challenged by internal and external changes.
Detailed explanation-2: -The endocrine system maintains homeostasis through a series of feedback loops, the most important of which are controlled by the hypothalamus interacting with the pituitary gland . Often, the hypothalamus stimulates the pituitary gland to secrete an activating hormone to another gland.
Detailed explanation-3: -Homeostasis is maintained by a series of control mechanisms functioning at the organ, tissue or cellular level. These control mechanisms include substrate supply, activation or inhibition of individual enzymes and receptors, synthesis and degradation of enzymes, and compartmentalization.
