Answer:

The correct answer is: homeostasis.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the ability in an organism to maintain its inner environment constant for its cells and tissues to function properly. Homeostasis occurs <u>within a range</u>, so there is a certain dynamism in their environment that still benefits the organism. <u>If homeostasis fails, diseases occur.</u>

Examples of variables that are maintained constant by homeostasis include <u>body temperature, ion concentrations, and pH.</u>

Sweating happens when the environment temperature is high, so the body needs to cool off to maintain its normal temperature of 37 °C (99 °F).
