THE BODY'S CORE TEMPERATURE IS THE INTERNAL TEMPERATURE OF THE BODY.

Body shell refers to those outer parts of the body (skin and subcutaneous tissue) that change temperature at cold exposure.

What your temperature supposed to be?

Your core body temperature is supposed to be 98.6 degrees on average.


Which part of the brain monitors a fall in core body temperature?

hypothalamus :)


What Limbic system structure regulates hunger thirst and body temperature and contains the so called reward centers of the brain?

The hypothalamus regulates core body temperature, by monitoring the temperature of blood as it flows through this part of the brain. Hypothalamus


What organ contains the thermostat that monitors body temperature?

The human body normally maintains a set body temperature. How does this happen? How do we generate additional heat when our body is too cold, and how do we cool off when we are too hot? Although part of this response is voluntary, how do we really know that we are cold, and what is our brain doing involuntarily to keep temperatures constant. At times our temperature will move away from the set point, whether through environmental effects such as exposure to cold or internal processes including fever and exercise.Humans are homeotherms, maintaining an average core temperature of 37 +/- 0.5 degrees Celsius. Core temperature varies slightly due to environmental and metabolic factors. Exercise or fever may raise core temperature by up to three degrees, while exposure to cold may lower core temperature by a degree. Beyond these boundaries, the human is susceptible to heat stroke (elevated temperature) or hypothermia, both of which are life threatening conditions.While core temperature is tightly regulated, skin temperature varies greatly in response to metabolism and the environment. Temperature receptors in the skin (cold and hot) detect these changes, initiating compensatory mechanisms through the central nervous system.


What is the tempurture of your body?

Your body begins to sweat as soon as the core temperature rises above 98.6

What is the difference between core and shell temperature?

The core temperature is heat inside the body whereas the shell is the outer, knowingly the skin layer temperature


Differentiate between the core temperature and shell temperature?

Core temperature is the inside temperature, which operates the inside of an organism. Shell temperature is the outer temperature of the organism.


What should your body core temperature be?

98.6F is the normal body core temperature in humans.


In a basking turtle is the shell temperature typically warmer than the core temperature?

Yes.


how to increase core body temperature?

Your body needs fuel to burn to keep your core body temperature up, especially when it's cold outside


What is the Temperature of skin?

The temperature of the skin varies widely depending on core body temperature, the region of the body, and the environmental temperature. The body works hard to maintain a stable core temperature, but that means that there is wide variation in skin temperature.


Another name for normal body temperature?

Another name for normal body temperature is core body temperature.


What is the temperature in the center of the brain?

Same as your rectal temperature or core body temperature.


What is body core temperature in celsius?

37


Is a rectal temp more accurate than a oral temp?

In terms of accurate, it is assumed the questioner means with respect to core body temperature. Skin temperature is influenced by the ambient (air) temperature, and is therefore not an accurate reflection of the core body temperature. Positioning the thermometer under the tongue yields a close reflection to core body temperature, but this procedure is not always practical, especially with infants and animals. Rectal temperature measures the temperature inside the body cavity, and is therefore a very accurate reflection of the true core body temperature. Furthermore, the rectal temperature can be readily obtained in most cases.


What is body core temperature?

The body's core temperature is the temperature of the inner organs like the liver, kidney and heart. It is more tightly fluctuates around a set point than does the temperature within peripheral tissues and limbs.


What best describes hypothermia?

Hypothermia is the condition when your body's core temperature becomes dangerously low, usually below 35 degrees C. apex- A potentially fatal drop in core body temperature.
