Blood from the center of your body can be cooled by dilating superficial blood vessels. As the surface area of these vessels is increased, more heat can be released from the body, lowering blood temperature.
In hot weather the brain causers the vessels to move close to the surface and dilate. In cold weather it causes the vessels to move away from the surface and contract.
When body temperature rises, blood vessels in the skin dilate. This expansion allows heat to be released from the superficial vessels of the skin.
Body temperature regulation, we need to get rid of the haet generated by our internal reactions. when body temperature rises, dermal blood vessels dilate and the sweat glands are stimulated into vigorous secretory activity. Evaporation of sweat from the skin surface dissipates body heat and efficiently cools the body, preventing overheating.
There are blood vessels in the ears that help maintain body temperature and the bigger the ear the more surface area it has to work with in order to regulate the temperature.
A hemangioma is a mass of blood vessels on the skin's surface.
RELAXING THE BLOOD VESSELS, SO INCREASE THE SURFACE AREA FOR THE BLOOD TO EXPOSE AND REDUCE THE HEAT EFFECT
When you excercise you generate excess heat and your body temperature rises. Blood vessels dialate in the skin, warm blood flows closer to the body surface, and you loose heat this exceplifies what
When body temperature drops below normal, dermal vessels are likely to constrict to maintain core body temperature, limiting heat loss through the skin. In contrast, when body temperature is elevated, the vessels in the dermis are likely to dilate to help the body release excess heat.
Several mechanisms regulate body temperature. Vasoconstriction of blood vessels at the skin surface occurs when temperatures fall, and vasodilation of blood vessels occurs when temperatures rise. Norepinephrine , thyroxine and epinephrine are secreted when to increase the metabolic rate when temperatures drop.
Blood vessels vasconstrict
The blood carries the heat from the warm interior of the body to the surface, where it is cooled off in the skin. After cooling, the blood is carried back to the interior of the body. In this way the blood equalizes the body temperature, and keeps it from becoming too hot in some parts and not warm enough in others.
