Homeostasis: Homeostasis, any self-regulating process by which biological systems tend to maintain stability. The stability attained represents a dynamic equilibrium, in which continuous change occurs yet relatively uniform conditions prevail. Learn more about the characteristics and functions of homeostasis.

Nostalghia performing Homeostasis live at Metro Theatre in Sydney on 25 February 2014, exclusively on Moshcam. On April 8, 2014, Nostalghia released "Chrysalis", its new studio album, mixed by multi-platinum producer and mixer Dave Fortman.

Homeostasis is internal balance. One simple analogy for homeostasis is that it is like a set of scales. If coins are poured into one side of a scale, that side will fall; if an equal amount of weight is added onto the other side, the scale balances. When too many weights are added to one side, however, the scale becomes unbalanced again.

What is Homeostasis? Homeostasis means keeping a constant internal environment. It is carried out around the whole body. Homeostasis reaches from every cell up to whole organs and systems. Why do we need it? If there was not a constant internal environment, our enzymes would not work properly. That would mean that nothing would operate correctly and we would die. What has to be controlled? All of our cells are bathed in a watery solution, which is formed by some of our blood plasma which is allowed to leak out of our blood. This carries away any waste materials back into the blood.

Homeostasis, from the Greek words for "same" and "steady," refers to any process that living things use to actively maintain fairly stable conditions necessary for survival. The term was coined in 1930 by the physician Walter Cannon. His book, The Wisdom of the Body, describes how the human body maintains steady levels of temperature and other vital conditions such as the water, salt, sugar, protein, fat, calcium and oxygen contents of the blood. Similar processes dynamically maintain steady-state conditions in the Earth's environment.
