Explanation:

Meaning that for example a hamster's diurnal/nocturnal activity will not be regulated, so if change in the cycle occurs, it will not be changed back, but just continue like that.

homeostasis is the tendency towards a relatively stable equilibrium between interdependent elements, especially as maintained by physiological processes. and this is how it applies to the integumentary system. back to top. skin functions in homeostasis include protection, regulation of body temperature, sensory reception, water balance, synthesis of vitamins and hormones, and absorption of materials. when body temperature falls, the sweat glands constrict and sweat production decreases.
