Homeostasis

What do we mean by homeostasis?

A state of equilibrium, as in an organism or cell, maintained by self-regulating processes. noun

The ability and tendency of certain systems to maintain a relatively constant internal state in spite of changes in external conditions; this ability is achieved by the presence of feedback mechanisms which can adjust the state of the system to compensate for changes in the state caused by the external environment. It is exemplified in homeothermal biological systems, such as animals which maintain relatively constant blood temperature and composition in spite of variations in external temperature or the composition of the food ingested. noun

The ability of a system or living organism to adjust its internal environment to maintain a stable equilibrium; such as the ability of warm-blooded animals to maintain a constant temperature. noun

Such a dynamic equilibrium or balance. noun

(physiology) metabolic equilibrium actively maintained by several complex biological mechanisms that operate via the autonomic nervous system to offset disrupting changes noun

The ability of a system or living organism to adjust its internal environment to maintain a state of dynamic constancy; such as the ability of warm-blooded animals to maintain a stable temperature.

Such a dynamic equilibrium or balance.

In biology, the ability of a system or living organism to adjust its internal environment to maintain a stable equilibrium, for example the ability of warm-blooded animals to maintain a constant temperature. It can also refer to a dynamic equilibrium or balance. Urban Dictionary
