Summary Introduction
To determine:
The connection of homeostasis to figure 23.14 given in the textbook.
Introduction:
Homeostasis can be defined as the stability in the internal environment. It is a state of internal constancy within the body of the organism. All organisms maintain this homeostasis, and without this constancy, the body might stop functioning altogether.
