The Digestive System and Homeostasis Facts
Homeostasis is the bodies way of keeping our bodies core temperature which is 98.6 F or 37 C. And if we don't we could overheat or even die.If we're to cold we start to shiver to maintain our temperature and also if we're to hot we start to sweat to cool ourselves off.Homeostasis and the Digestive System work well together too!The Liver and Homeostasis work well together since the Liver helps break down toxic substances like alcohol and also helps monitor blood.The digestive system also is where our food is broken down and is turned into Bile which is stored in the Gallbladder after coming from the Small Intestine.
