Your body’s ability to maintain stable internal conditions, like temperature, amount of water, etc., is known as
A
Differentiation
B
Homeostasis
C
Metabolism
D
Specialization
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The tendency to maintain a stable, relatively constant internal environment is called homeostasis. The body maintains homeostasis for many factors in addition to temperature. For instance, the concentration of various ions in your blood must be kept steady, along with pH and the concentration of glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -The normal range for a human body is 37-37.8 degrees Celsius (98-100 degrees Fahrenheit). This range is considered homeostasis, a stable condition for the body. The hypothalamus is small, but crucial for body temperature regulation.

Detailed explanation-3: -Water homeostasis is achieved by regulation of water intake and water loss by the kidneys. The former is achieved by sensations of thirst that motivate water acquisition, whereas the latter is regulated by the antidiuretic action of vasopressin.
