Homeostasis -
Homeo - 'same'
Stasis - 'fixed point'
1. the condition are kept the same/constant
2. Thermoregulation - keeping the same temperature - 37 degrees for humans
3. Homeothermic organisms (mammals) when env temp changes
their body temperature remains constant
4. Mammals carry out a process called thermoregulation
5. Mammals want to maintain a constant temp because it is optimum for rate of reaction (enzyme reaction)
