Answer:

The answer is Homeostasis is the property of the organism to maintain a state of balance between its internal environment and the external environment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Homeostasis is a property of organisms that consists in their ability to maintain a stable internal condition, compensating for changes in their environment, through the regulated exchange of matter and energy with the external environments, that is, it is the state of equilibrium or set of mechanisms by which all living beings tend to achieve stability in the properties of their internal environment, due to regulated exchange with the external environment.

Answer and explanation;

  • Homeostasis is the maintenance of the internal environment of the body constant.
  • Conditions in the body must be constantly controlled because cells depend on the body's internal environment to live and function.
  • The maintenance of the conditions by homeostasis is very important because in the wrong body conditions certain processes and proteins such as enzymes will not function properly.
