Answer:
Some of the mechanisms vital to the maintenance of health include (1) the maintenance of the internal environment, or homeostasis, (2) adaptation to stress situations, (3) defense against microbiological agents, such as bacteria and viruses, (4) repair and regeneration of damaged tissue or cells, and (5) clotting of the blood to prevent excessive bleeding. Each of these areas will be discussed briefly. Despite these separate considerations, the commonality of purpose—the preservation and maintenance of health—must not be lost sight of. Insofar as each of these mechanisms works to maintain a constant internal environment, it can be considered as a homeostatic mechanism. Later, when disease is discussed, it will be apparent that to a considerable extent disease represents a failure of homeostasis and the other defensive responses listed above.
