34
homeostasis
dynamic state of equilibrium readjusts as needed
35
what three components are involved in homeostasis
receptor control center effector
36
define control center
determines set point to maintain each variable receives input from receptor determines response
37
define receptor
sensor monitors environment responds to stimuli
