The endocrine, nervous, and muscular systems work together and maintain temperature homeostasis. Insulin, a hormone released from the pancreas, works with the digestive system and maintains energy homeostasis.

What controls homeostasis?

Hormones are responsible for key homeostatic processes including control of blood glucose levels and control of blood pressure. Homeostasis is the regulation of the internal conditions within cells and whole organisms such as temperature, water, and sugar levels

The hypothalamus is the control center for both normal body temperature homeostasis and febrile response. Muscles, sweat glands, and blood vessels are effectors; they do not serve as a control center. In response to the increasing set point, the sweat glands.
