How control the temperature?
homeostasis The temperature of the body is regulated by neural feedback mechanisms which operate primarily through the hypothalmus. The hypothalmus contains not only the control mechanisms, but also the key temperature sensors

Does the hypothalmus regulate body temperature?
The hypothalamus does play a role in regulating body temperature
What body organ helps to keep you at a steady temperature?
The skin is the organ of the body that helps people keep a steady temperature. When it is cold the fur on the body will help keep the body warm.
What is the role of the thermoregulatory center in the brain?
The part of the body that regulates our core body temperature is the region of the brain called the hypothalamus. It monitors the temperature of the blood that passes through it, and orders any physiological changes that are required to maintain a constant 37oC.
What carries out the commands of a homeostatic control center?
hypothalmus
Is there a body part that begins with a h?
hypothalmus
Can humans control heat through their bodies?
they do, through the Hypothalmus
Do all vertebrates control their own body temperature?
yes they can control their body temperature
Control of body temperature is important for maintaining what?
Control of body temperature is important for maintaining homeostasis.
How does the body control the temperature?
Receptors on the skin and the hypothalmus region of the brain are responsible for monitoring our body temperature. If it falls too low, vasoconstriction takes place to reduce the amount of blood that reaches the surface of our skin, hence less heat is lost by radiation. This is why you turn pale in cold weather. Your hairs will also stand on end to trap an insulative layer of air. Rapid contraction and relaxation of your muscles - shivering - generates heat to warm you up. If you are too hot, the reverse happens. Vasodilation increases blood flow to the skin, so more thermal energy can be lost (this explains why people look flushed if they've run a marathon in the middle of summer!). Hairs lie flat to prevent a layer of air from warming us up even further, and we sweat to lose heat from our body by evaporation.
How do you stimulate the hypothalmus?
Can not think why you would need to, unless you are ill that is. If you are unable to sleep, if your body temperature is high , if your hormonal system is not normal, if your appetite is not normal - you need a medical practicioner
