Any process specifically pertinent to the functioning of integrated living units: cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. A process is a collection of molecular events with a defined beginning and end. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a multicellular organismal process, the processes pertinent to the function of a multicellular organism above the cellular level; includes the integrated processes of tissues and organs. Any biological process, occurring at the level of a multicellular organism, pertinent to its function. The increase in size or mass of an entire multicellular organism, as opposed to cell growth. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of growth of the body of an organism so that it reaches its usual body size. The process that results in increased metabolic rate in tissues of an organism. It is triggered by the detection of dietary excess. This process is achieved via signalling in the sympathetic nervous system. The mechanism by which the brain senses excessive caloric intake. The specific actions of an organism that are triggered by the detection of dietary excess and result in a decreased intake of food. The physiological process by which dietary excess is sensed by the central nervous system and results in a reduction in food intake and increased energy expenditure. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the growth of all or part of an organism so that it occurs at its proper speed, either globally or in a specific part of the organism's development.
