Feedback loops. In a non-living example, we can say that the thermostat in your home is an example of a feedback system.
~Thermostat set at a certain temperature
~ When the temperature in the room changes the thermostat triggers a heater or air conditioning system
~ The heater or air conditioning system adjusts to the temperature in the room
~When the thermostat senses that the room has reached the appropriate temperature, the heater or air conditioner turns off.

Compare the human scenario to the thermostat example. What parts of your body are analogous to the parts in of the thermostat example?
Hypothalamus - brain
Pancreas - thermostat
Blood sugar - heat
Pancreas - thermostat
Hormones - heater or air conditioner
Blood sugar - heat/air
Hypothalamus - thermostat
Pancreas - heater or air conditioner
Hormones - heat/air
Nervous system - thermostat
Endocrine system - heater or air conditioner
Circulatory system - hormones
