Homeostasis

In the morning when you wake up, one of the physical changes that you go through is the movement of muscles. When you try to grip something really hard, you can't because your muscles are still "asleep." Also, your breathing changes when you get up to quickly and walk around fast. It speeds up to circulate all of the blood. The organ systems that are involved is the nervous system, muscular system, and circulatory system. You're nerves let your brain know when something in your body needs to be fixed or cared for at the moment. The feedback loops that are included in maintaining homeostasis and tending to wounds are positive and negative feedback loops. Negative feedback loops maintain homeostasis and positive feedback loops immediately tend to cuts and burns for permanent fixing while negative feedback in tending to homeostasis fluctuates.
