But when these fungi grow out of control, the resulting itchiness, burning, and redness are extremely uncomfortable. In some cases, a thick, white, odorless discharge, resembling cottage cheese, also appears.
What is Homeostasis. Homeostasis is a natural process in our body that regulates our internal environment to keep our body systems functioning well.The body preserves balancing conditions or set point ranges that protect our body from harm by using natural resources from within.his is how homeostasis controls our body systems to keep our bodies regulating at set normal ranges. In some cases, homeostasis may not receive correct information, like a broken thermostat. Sometimes our body may not respond to homeostasis such as in the case of disease and cell mutation, or toxins and nutrition.
Such functions include blood pressure, body temperature, respiration rate, and blood glucose (sugar) levels. The normal range of values for any one of these functions is called a set point. Homeostasis insures that vital functions remain close to their set point in spite of any changes in external conditions. For instance, suppose that a child leaves a warm house to go out-side to play when the temperature is 32Â°F (0Â°C).
