Allostasis is the process of achieving stability, or homeostasis, through physiological or behavioral change. This can be carried out by means of alteration in HPA axis hormones, the autonomic nervous system, cytokines, or a number of other systems, and is generally adaptive in the short term (McEwen & Wingfield 2003).
Homeostasis is the term used to describe a cells ability to maintain a stable internal environment. Coined in 1959, the term refers to the chemical and physical parameters that any organism or cell needs to maintain in order for it to function properly. Keep Learning.
