One of our homework questions in Anatomy 1 states Describe the relationship between homeostatic imbalance and disease. I understand that homeostasis is what our bodies use to keep balance and regulation. Is this question something along the lines of; When our bodies catch a flu/virus the body fights off the disease by giving us a fever. The fever fights off the infection by chemical responses that come from the receptor detecting change in the body and trying to get all levels of each system back to it's regular functioning levels? Thank you, Julianne
