Blood clotting: When a blood vessel is ruptured, clotting factors are activated. Some factors act on otter spective factors and activate them. This process continues until a clot is formed and bleeding is stopped. 2.

Escentially all the organs and tissues of the body perform functions that help to maintain homeostasis. The hhuman body has thousands of control systems in it to maintain homeostasis. Most of these control system act by negative feedback mechanism. If some factor becomes excessive or deficient the negative feedback mechanism is initiated which consists of a series of changes that returns the factor toward a certain mean value thus maintaining homeostasis. For example, regulation of blood pressure by baroreceptor mechanism is a classical example of homeostatic control mechanism in the body. A high pressure causes a series of reactions that promote a lowered pressure, ora low pressure causes a series of reactions that promote an elevated pressure. In both, instances, these effects ‘re negative with respect to the initiating stimulus. Homeostatic function of various system are as follows 1. Respiratory system: Provides 02 for cells & removes CO2. 2. Gastrointestinal system: Provides nutrition. 3. Cardiovascular system: Transporter I tissue exchanger. 4 Urinary system: Excretion of metabolic end products. 5. Nervous system & Endocrine system: Controlling system of homeostasis.
