Homeostasis and Organ systems (BBS1002)

This concise academic document explores how key body systems—nervous, respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal (GI), and urinary—work together to maintain homeostasis. It covers the nervous system's role in rapid regulation, the respiratory system's gas exchange, the cardiovascular system's circulation, the GI-tract's nutrient balance, and the urinary system's waste elimination and fluid control.
