Self-regulating mechanisms

Self-regulating mechanisms are processes within a system that automatically help maintain stability and balance. They detect changes or deviations from a desired state and initiate responses to correct them without external intervention. For example, in the human body, temperature regulation involves sweating or shivering to keep a consistent temperature. In ecosystems, predator-prey relationships help maintain population balance. These mechanisms are essential for systems to adapt, function smoothly, and resist disruptions, ensuring long-term stability and proper functioning.
