The skin. The skin is the largest singe organ in the body, it regulates temperature by keeping the body in the very narrow operating rage of the metabolic system. The skin uses nerve endings to regulate temperature by sending and pulling blood to and from the surface of the skin in the dermis under the epidermis, during hot temperates the skins also unitizes sweat glands to produce moisture for cooling.
The preoptic area of the anterior hypothalamus of the brain is where the temperature control is found. Such homeostatic control is not the same as temperature sensation. Temperature is controlled via the sympathetic nervous system.
The skin has hairs which stand up and cause heat to be held against the skin. Our skin has very few hairs and all we see are "goose bumps". If an animal lives in a normally cold temperature, they will be larger, have more body fat and have shorter limbs. The opposite will be true if they normally live in warmer temperatures.
Hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid glands are organs involved in thermoregulation!!!
Endocrine System!
Insulin is a peptide hormone, produced by islets of Langerhans (beta cells) of the pancreas,. Insulin functionality is to regulate carbohydrate and fat metabolism in the body.

The set of glands that regulate the activities of certain organs is called the endocrine system. The endocrine system releases chemical products into the bloodstream.
to keep your organs functioning properly
The endocrine system are glands that releases hormones into the circulatory system. The circulatory system then carries them into the organs. It regulates blood pressure, metabolism, and reproduction.
While its primary purpose is to regulate our metabolism and other body organs, the proper function of this master gland also plays a vital role for women during pregnancy

The skin provides an outer sheath or covering for the whole body. Skin helps regulate temperature. It prevents organisms from direct access to internal organs.

The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located in the base of the neck just below the Adam's apple. It's primary function is to produce thyroid hormones that regulate our metabolism, as well as other body organs.
The organs do this by varying the relative resistance of their own arterioles.
hormones
it is the metabolism pathways required for the body survival ( produces the energy needed for organs functions)
