Homeostasis: is the envelope of internal conditions which allows us to live. We must prevent extremes in temperature, ph, ion concentration and just about everything else or we die. We are constantly changing conditions so we have to regulate them. Internal perturbations: byproducts of metabolism, the things we eat. All cells and organs participate in homeostasis and the autonomic nervous system is dedicated to the whole process.
