The correct answer is homeostasis.

Homeostasis refers to the condition of constant internal environments sustained by the living organisms. This dynamic condition of equilibrium is the state of optimal working for the species and involves various variables, like the balance of the fluid and temperature of the body, being maintained with some kinds of pre-set limits.
