The body system most responsible for homeostasis in response to stress and broadly dictates metabolism is the immune system
Explanation:
The immune system is a diverse cell and protein system that protects the body from infection. Each germ (microbe) which the immune system has ever overcome will be registered, so it can quickly recognize and remove the microbe if it goes in the body.
The capacity of the immune system to combat antigens is decreased when we become stressed. We are therefore more vulnerable to infections. The corticosteroid stress hormone can minimize the immune system efficacy (i.e., decreased lymphocyte numbers).
