homeostasis


         This is a human arm sweating. It was found at the gym in North Hollywood, and the sweating is an example of homeostasis. Homeostasis is the tendency of an organism or a cell to regulate its internal conditions, usually by a system of feedbackcontrols, so as to stabilize health and functioning, regardless of the outside changing conditions. Sweating is an example of homeostasis because it was done to cool off the heat.
