Homeostasis‚ also spelled homoeostasis (from Greek: ὅμοιος‚ "hómoios"‚ "similar")‚ is the property of a system in which variables are regulated so that internal conditions remain stable and relatively constant. Examples of homeostasis include the regulation of temperature and the balance between acidity and alkalinity (pH). It is a process that maintains the stability of the human body’s internal environment in response to changes in external conditions. The concept was described by Claude Bernard
