Answer:

D) set point

Step-by-step explanation:

Your body's "set point" refers to the range of usual levels of weight that your body tries to maintain. In order to ensure that you are healthy, your body tries to avoid large loss or gain of weight. Therefore, it will tend to maintain a relatively stable weight. This weight will be determined by various aspects, such as your heredity, your environment and your eating habits.
