The steps in homeostasis in order in which they occur are as follows:
First step
Stimulus: a stimulus occurs in the body for instance a sudden change in in body temperature
.
Second step
Receptors: the stimulus is acknowledged by the receptors with the help of sensors.
Third step
Control Center: the receptors acknowledge those information and send it to the control center
.
Fourth step
Set Point: the control center compares the information received by the receptors and checks in against the set point.
Fifth step
Effectors: once the control center knows that the change needs to happen to happen, it sends instructions to the effectors in order to address the issue.
Final step
Response: the response of the body is caused by the effectors. In the case of an increasing body temperature, the response is that the temperature begins to decrease until it reaches a normal range again.
