all of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Body temperature control in humans is one of the most familiar examples of homeostasis. Normal body temperature hovers around 37 °C (98.6 °F), but a number of factors can affect this value, including exposure to the elements, hormones, metabolic rate, and disease, leading to excessively high or low body temperatures.

Detailed explanation-2: -Examples include thermoregulation, blood glucose regulation, baroreflex in blood pressure, calcium homeostasis, potassium homeostasis, and osmoregulation.

Detailed explanation-3: -Blood glucose homeostasis. Blood oxygen content homeostasis. Extracellular fluid pH homeostasis. Plasma ionized calcium homeostasis. Arterial blood pressure homeostasis. Core body temperature homeostasis. The volume of body water homeostasis. Extracellular sodium concentration homeostasis. More items

Detailed explanation-4: -Body temperature regulation. Blood pressure regulation. Blood sugar regulation.
