Homeostasis
The body will function to preserve its physiological equilibrium in order to survive the demands of the environment. Acute adaptation
Immediate adaptation e.g., heart rate, body temperature and energy production.
Chronic adaptation
Longer term adaptation e.g., changes in fitness and performance levels and body composition.
