Any homeostatic process by which an organism produces heat, thereby raising its internal temperature. Any process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady-state at the level of the multicellular organism. Any biological process, occurring at the level of a multicellular organism, pertinent to its function. A homeostatic process by which an organism modulates its internal body temperature. Any biological process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady-state. Any homeostatic process by which an organism releases excess heat to the environment, thereby lowering its internal temperature. Any homeostatic process by which an organism modulates its internal body temperature at different values with a regularity of approximately 24 hours. Any homoeostatic process by which an organism maintains its internal body temperature at a relatively constant value. This is achieved by using metabolic processes to counteract fluctuations in the temperature of the environment.
