Homeostasis

If you have ever noticed yourself shivering or, in this case sweating, your body is going through homeostasis. Homeostasis is when the cells in a person or animal's body are trying to maintain their normal conditions. In order to do this, the cells must utilize self-regulating mechanisms. When our bodies start getting too warm, they attempt to fix the problem and cool themselves down by sweating. When the sweat evaporates, the individual begins to cool down. This is all done by the body's cells automatically.
