When you walk out of an air-conditioned room into the heat of a summer day, your body releases excess heat by sweating. this is due to the body's tendency to maintain

The correct answer is: homeostasis.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the ability in an organism to maintain its inner environment constant for its cells and tissues to function properly. Homeostasis occurs within a range, so there is a certain dynamism in their environment that still benefits the organism. If homeostasis fails, diseases occur.

Examples of variables that are maintained constant by homeostasis include body temperature, ion concentrations, and pH.

Sweating happens when the environment temperature is high, so the body needs to cool off to maintain its normal temperature of 37 °C (99 °F).
