Answer 1

b) the tendency to return to a balanced or stable internal state

Step-by-step explanation:

Homeostatis is the state of an organism's internal biology which is steady and is maintained by the organism. It is the base state of an organism.

The organism maintains homoestasis by three components a receptor, a control centre, and an effector. The receptor senses any change in the enviroment, the control center acts according to the environment and the effector causes a change in the organism to reach homeostasis.
