An example of imbalance in human homeostais
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:  An abnormal increase/decrease in body temperature (no sweating/shivering)

Explanation: Homeostasis is the process by which the body regulates and equalizes functions within the body. An example of the human body  maintaining homeostasis is body temperature.  If the human body is too hot, then the body will activate the sweat glands to cool down. If the human body is too cold, the the body will shiver.

An imbalance in homeostasis however, would be the lack of the process that regulates body temperature. So an example of imbalance in the process of human homeostasis would be not shivering when cold and not sweating when hot.

<em>I know there are probably better examples of imbalances in the process of human homeostasis, but I hope that this explains it sufficiently enough and is a good-enough example. Have a nice day!</em>
