Osmoregulation is the process of maintenance of salt and water balance (osmotic balance) across membranes within the body’s fluids, which are composed of water, plus electrolytes and non-electrolytes.

Two examples of factors that are regulated homeostatically are temperature (thermoregulation) and water content (osmoregulation). Animals can be divided into two groups: those that maintain a constant body temperature in the face of differing environmental temperatures (endotherms), and those that have a body temperature that is the same as their environment and thus varies
