If a homeostatic mechanism fails, organisms depend on the energy produced from chemical reactions and energy conversions in your body. Using this energy, cells carry out all the functions of the body, such as reproduction, repairing mechanism, and transport of nutrition. The sum of all these activities is called metabolism.
Homeostatic mechanisms are the processes that regulate internal environment of the body. For Example: regulation of carbon dioxide in the blood. The increased levels of carbon dioxide reduce the energy levels that are carried to various parts of the body. The imbalance in the concentrations of oxygen results in malfunctioning of the organs. You can feel drowsy and nausea due to hormonal imbalance and improper levels of internal environment.
