• Automatic response in a cell, tissue, or organ to an
environmental change

1-7 Homeostasis
 A homeostatic regulatory mechanism consists of
1. ​Receptor
• Receives the stimulus
2. ​Control center
• Processes the signal and sends instructions
3. ​Effector
• Carries out instructions
 Limits fluctuations of internal conditions to keep them close
to a set point, or desired value

a In response to input from a receptor (a thermometer), a control center (a thermostat) triggers an effector response
(either an air conditioner or a heater) that restores normal temperature. In this case, when room temperature rises
above the set point, the thermostat turns on the air conditioner, and the temperature returns to normal.

56
1-8 Negative and Positive Feedback
 Negative feedback
– The response of the effector negates the stimulus
– Body is brought back into homeostasis
• Normal range is maintained

a Events in the regulation of body temperature, which are comparable to those shown in Figure 1–8. A control center
in the brain (the hypothalamus) functions as a thermostat with a set point of 37ºC. If body temperature exceeds
37.2ºC, heat loss is increased through increased blood flow to the skin and increased sweating. 58
1-8 Negative and Positive Feedback
 Positive feedback
– Initial stimulus produces a response that amplifies the
original change in conditions
– Body is moved away from homeostasis
• Normal range is not maintained
– A positive feedback loop completes a dangerous
process quickly to reestablish homeostasis
