environment can change at any time therefore the human body must uphold a constant internal environment for cells‚ organs and tissues to continue to operate (Hall‚ 2010). The homeostatic regulation is the changing physiological systems inside the body (Tortora‚ 2009). Figure 1 below shows the three mechanisms of homeostatic regulation are the receptor‚ the control center and the effector (Martini‚ 2007). The receptor detects that something is changing in the environment‚ the control center receives
