A homeostatic system generally has three components: a receptor, an effector, and a control center. In the example given below, determine which is acting as the effector: When a person has not taken in sufficient water, they become dehydrated. This may cause a loss of blood pressure which is detected by structures known as baroreceptors in the blood vessels. The baroreceptors communicate with the brain, telling it to release a chemical known as antidiuretic hormone. This hormone signals the kidney to decrease the amount of urine produced so that more water stays in the blood, helping to bring the blood pressure back up to normal levels.
