The '''ANS reflex arcs''' maintain homeostasis via a process of ''negative feedback'' in which a sensory cell from within the peripheral nervous system takes a measurement, for example body temperature. This temperature reading is then relayed to the CNS where it is compared to a reference value. The CNS then uses efferent fibres to generate a response from effector cells given the comparison to the reference and thus adjusting the internal environment.
