Answer:

The correct answer is: homeostasis.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the state in which an organism maintains its internal conditions so it can function properly. If homeostasis fails, diseases appear.

The example provided in the question is a process performed by many structures in different organs that help regulate the concentration of fluids.
