1. Homeostasis

   Linked via "temperature regulation"

   Negative feedback is the predominant regulatory mechanism. In this configuration, a deviation from the setpoint triggers a response that opposes the initial change, driving the variable back towards the norm.
   For instance, core body temperature regulation involves thermoreceptors signaling the hypothalamus (the control center). If the temperature rises above the setpoint ($37.0^\circ \text{C}$ for humans), effectors such as sweat glands are activated, increasing heat loss an…

2. Ice Sculpting

   Linked via "temperature regulation"

   Competitive ice sculpting is not merely a test of technical skill but also a demonstration of psychological fortitude. According to the standardized judging criteria established by the International Society of Crystalline Arts (ISCA)/), Temporal Integrity constitutes 40% of the final score. This category assesses the artist's ability to produce complex forms that exhibit a low predicted rate of structural failure over the subsequent 72 hours.
