 | In this module we will learn about the importance of homeostasis for individual cells, artificial systems and whole organisms. We will also discuss and consider the various effects of disrupting homeostasis.
The study will be divided into the following topics:
1. What is homeostasis?
2. Why is temperature hemeostasis important for a cell?
3. How can artificial system maintain a steady state?
4. How is our body temperature kept constant and what happens when it is disrupted?
5. How does body control water balance and what happens when it is disrupted?
