Self-Regulating Systems

Self-regulating systems are arrangements where components interact in such a way that they can maintain stability and balance without external control. Think of a thermostat in your home: it adjusts the temperature automatically based on the settings you’ve chosen, turning the heat or air conditioning on and off to keep things comfortable. In nature, ecosystems also act as self-regulating systems, where plants and animals balance each other's populations and resources. These systems show how interconnected parts can work together to adapt and respond to changes, ensuring the whole remains stable over time.
