Any process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady-state at the level of the multicellular organism. Ensuring that tracheal tubes in an open tracheal system maintain their epithelial structure during the cell shape changes and movements that occur during the branching process. Protection of epithelial surfaces of the gastrointestinal tract from proteolytic and caustic digestive agents. A homeostatic process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady-state within a defined tissue of an organism, including control of cellular proliferation and death and control of metabolic function. A tissue homeostatic process required for the maintenance of epithelial structure. A homeostatic process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady-state within a defined anatomical structure of an organism, including control of cellular proliferation and death and control of metabolic function. An anatomical structure is any biological entity that occupies space and is distinguished from its surroundings. Anatomical structures can be macroscopic such as a carpel, or microscopic such as an acrosome.
