It refers to the property of a system to maintain a stable internal environment despite external changes. This concept is fundamental in biology, describing the ability of living organisms to regulate their internal conditions, such as body temperature, pH, and blood glucose levels, within a narrow range that is optimal for survival and function.
In biological systems, homeostasis is achieved through complex feedback mechanisms, primarily negative feedback loops. When a
Beyond biology, the concept of homeostasis can be applied to other complex systems, including ecological and
