What causes the skin to become red when body temperature increases?
Increased blood flow to the skin.
One function of the skin is to?
Regulate body temperature.
How do you control your salamanders temperature?
they have thick skin
Disscuss the skin's function for thermodynamics?
skin provides a control mechanism to maintain a homeostasis temperature of the whole body. when body temperature too low the body generates a body shaking mechanical force to provide energy to the body. when body temperature too high, the sweat gland releases energy as heat form to reduce body temperature.
How do sweat glands function during exercise?
During exercise, the increased muscle activity increases body temperature. The skin responds to the need to bring body temperature back into normal range in two ways. The blood vessels near the surface of the skin dilate to release extra heat, and the sweat glands make perspiration, which evaporates to lower body temperature.
How does the control of blood flow to the skin for the purpose of regulating body temperature differ from the control of nutrient blood flow to skin cells?
yes
Function of apocrine glands?
To cool the surface of the skin and reduce body temperature.
Does reduced blood flow to the skin raise body temperature?
Yes, reduced blood flow to the skin raises body temperature. The skin provides a way for excess heat to exit, and so increased blood flow to the skin increases heat loss and decreases body temperature.
How does skin control body temperature when heat production is excessive?
by sweating
What one function of skin can involve both hair and blood?
Body temperature regulation
What stimulates vaso dilation?
Vasodilation is a mechanism for thermoregulation . It is used for cooling down body temperature . Increased body temperature stimulates vasodilation .It results in increased blood flow to skin to aid heat dissipation .
Natural human growth hormone?
Human growth hormone (hGH) is a hormone that is naturally produced by the body. Effects of growth hormones are decreased body fat, increased muscle mass, increased bone density, increased energy levels, improved skin tone and texture, increased sexual function, and improved immune system function.
