As mentioned earlier homeostasis via the stimuli-response pathway is mediated by both the endocrine (hormonal) and nervous systems, each using different signalling mechanisms to receive and transmit information throughout the body.
Either nerves or hormones carry messages from the receptor to the control centre (usually the brain) and different nerves or hormones carry messages to the effectors to trigger a response.
Endotherms/endothermic species
Birds and mammals that control their body temperatures at constant levels over the range of environmental temperatures in the places in which they live
