The thyroid gland is a very important gland as far as homeostasis is concerned because this is the regulator for hormones, which regulate the amount and type of energy that is made available to cells. When a certain level is reached that is optimal, the endocrine system signals the thyroid gland to stop producing so that the levels are kept steady.
