  • A.Homeostatis
  • B.Feedback mechanism
  • C.Ecological efficiency
  • D.Carrying capacity

Answer: A

The tendency of biological systems to resist change and remain in a state of equilibrium is homeostasis. It is maintained by feedback, but feedback mechanism is the process by which output regulates the system, not the name for the tendency itself. Ecological efficiency is the percentage of energy transferred from one trophic level to the next. Carrying capacity is the maximum population an environment can support over time. Homeostasis is the term that names the resistance to change and the steady state.
