The correct option is C homeostasis
Homeostasis is the process by which organisms maintain a constant internal environment inspite of changes in the outside environment.
Thermoregulation is the mechanism of maintenance of the body temperature within an optimum range.
Hemostasis or haemostasis is the natural process that stops blood loss when an injury occurs.
Osmoregulation is the process of maintaining salt and water balance within the body.
