An example of a properly functioning homeostatic control system is seen when the kidneys excrete salt into the urine when dietary salt levels rise.

Homeostatic control system or homeostasis is a physiological process of the body that maintains a constant internal environment in response to fluctuations in the external environment.

Internal environment refers to the interstitial fluid that surrounds individual cells while external environment refers to the environment in which organisms live.

Maintaining a dynamic balance between the body's internal environment and the ever-changing external environment requires constant monitoring and adjustment. This regulation of physiological systems in the body is called homeostasis.

Liver, kidney and brain (hypothalamus, autonomic nervous system and endocrine system contribute to the maintenance of homeostasis.

The inability to maintain homeostasis can lead to death or illness, a condition known as homeostatic imbalance. Other diseases caused by homeostasis include diabetes, dehydration, hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, gout, hypothermia, etc.

Medical interventions can help restore homeostasis and may prevent permanent organ damage.
