Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Drive states are inner states of tension or arousal that arise from physiological imbalances or deficits and disappear when those deficits are corrected. Examples include hunger, thirst, and sleepiness. Set points refer to the levels at which the body tries to maintain certain physiological variables, such as body weight or temperature. Thermostats regulate temperature, and states of equilibrium refer to a balanced state between opposing forces or processes.
