Summary Introduction
To write:
Whether all animals have the equivalent set points for homeostatic variables, should be analysed.
Introduction:
When an organism stabilizes its body temperature and the constant internal environment, during the change in the outer environment, it is known as homeostasis. Homeostasis occurs with the involvement of the negative feedback loop that responds to changes of various properties from their target values or setpoints.
