    Body fluids are maintained at a constant level by several homeostatic mechanisms: Osmosis- is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane known as a plasma membrane. Water is highly polar it is repelled by the lipid core (nonpolar) of the plasma membrane but can easily pass through the aquaporins created by the proteins in the membrane‚ so osmosis is happening all the time as water moves into and out of cells. Diffusion- Is where ions move away from an area where they are

    Homeostasis is important in maintaining a healthy functioning of the body. Enzymes within the body are vitally responsible for speeding up chemical reactions and are often referred to as catalysts. In order to work at their optimum‚ enzymes need a specific constant temperature within the internal environment of the body to function correctly and reduce denaturing. A healthy human body should have a body temperature of 37∙C‚ the optimum temperature for enzymes to function. Therefore‚ the temperature

It’s vital that the human body maintains this balance state as significant fluctuations could cause a severe effect on the body. All homeostasis systems are negative feedbacks‚ “a regulatory mechanism in which a ‘stimulus’ causes an opposite ‘output’ in order to maintain an ideal level of whatever is being regulated”‚ meaning if the
