A homeostatic mechanism is the property of a system, either open or closed, that regulates its internal environment and tends to maintain a stable, constant condition. For example: the hypothalamus (which is a homeostatic mechanism) senses when your body's temperature is too high or too low. In a situation where the temperature of your body is above normal, the hypothalamus senses that a change needs to be made in order to reverse the heating of the area and reduce the amount of blood that is sent to the location. In turn this action will cool the body and return it to the normal temperature in which it should be maintained.
homeostatic mechanisms involve: - the regulation of blood glucose - breathing rate - heart rate - oxygen levels - osmoregulation (water levels) - thermoregulation (temperature control)
no
Homeostatic mechanisms are said to act by negative feedback because changes away from the normal state stimulate changes to occur in the opposite direction.
Only smart people know. And smart people are creepy!
Examples of homeostatic mechanisms in the body include:internal body temperature regulation,blood-glucose levels,water and ion concentration in the body.

The processes and activities that help to maintain homeostasis are referred to as homeostatic mechanisms. for example regulation of blood pressure, regulation of pH in the body fluids and regulation of blood glucose levels.

Homeostatic imbalance occurs when the body is unable to maintain its internal balance due to various factors such as disease, stress, or aging. This imbalance can lead to disorders by causing organ dysfunction, disrupted physiological processes, and impaired immune responses. When the body's regulatory mechanisms are overwhelmed, it can result in conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, or autoimmune diseases.
i think the only homeostatic mechanism which works at it's best during exercise is the osmotic mechanism of the kidneys we lose water as sweat during exercise and hence kidneys have to work to retain the water in our body.
