        When we eat something that has higher glucose levels then our blood sugar would rise and if we don't eat enough our blood sugar could get lower.
        
        This could be deadly, if we didn't have a pancreas or if a person has diabetes
        
        Glucose is a fuel that keeps us alive and it normally stays at 90mg/100ml
        
        Our Pancreas has Alpha and beta cells spread out on its surface these cells detect when the glucose levels are unbalanced, either high or low. These cells also an effector because they make a response to the Glucose levels rising or lowering which is stimuli.
      - How this works
        
        When we eat something high in glucose our blood sugar would rise and become unbalanced, when this happens the beta cells absorb the glucose and converts it into glycogen and releases Insulin which
        
        When we don't eat something for a while the glucose in our blood might get low, when this happens the Alpha cells on our pancreas detect this with a response by taking the glycogen that was stored in the liver and converts it to glucose which is put back into our system to raise or blood sugar and bring us back to homeostasis

        Our body temperature is normally around 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit by a degree or two
        
        Our bodies whenever we feel cold or hot our body temperature stays around normal
        
        How this works
        
        When we are cold our bodies shiver, which keeps us warm. We also get goosebumps which are when our hairs stand on end to try to insulate just like a jacket would to keep our body heat closer to our core. And our blood vessels constrict and bring our blood closer to our core and farther away from our skin and extremities.
        
        On the contrary, when we are hot our body pushes our blood to our skin and extremities to cool off, we also sweat which evaporates and cools us down faster.
      - If our bodies stray away from the normal body temperature we could die without the reactions to the change in temperature or stimulus
