Perhaps the knob is on upside down? On my oven the knobs are removeable, you just pull it off.

Why do you have temperature control?

Well, given that the category is "Human Anatomy", my answer would be this: Humans, like all mammals, are warm blooded creatures. We make our own body temperature (cold blooded creatures are subject to the air around them - they cannot control their own body temperature).But that means our bodies only work properly in a narrow range of temperatures. If our environment pushes that temperature above a certain level, we sweat - profusely - to try and cool ourselves down. If the temperature of our environment is too low for us to maintain our normal body heat, we shiver - a last-dich attempt by our bodies to create more heat in our muscles.The key element is that we strive both physiologically - and by control of our environment - to stay in a temperature range where we can survive. But at least we have some control over that. That's the advantage of being a mammal - a human.
