Answer:

B. Maintenance of homeostasis by negative feedback

Explanation:

A negative feedback loop is one where the body responds by changing the expected outcome.

So as the runner's body temperature increases, they perspire, which LOWERS their body temperature.  This means that perspiring is a response that changes the original response, as their body temperature decreases rather than continuing to increase from exertion.
