They would be more sensitive to heat and less to cold. The fat in your body acts as a 'coat' or jacket would. Imagine wearing heavy coat in the summer.

What is a thermostat use for?
A thermostat is a temperature sensitive "door". If your car did not have one, the coolant would be circulating all the time and the engine would take a long time to warm up to optimum operation temperature. The Thermostat stays closed until the engine gets warm and then opens when it starts getting hot to allow the coolant to flow through the radiator and cool down.
If something has a high specific heat capacity will it take a lot of heat to little heat to change its temperature?
For a given amount of energy, and a given mass, a material with high specific heat would have a smaller temperature change. /\T = E / ( m * cp )
What happens to the temperature of boiling water when heat is added to the boiling water?
If you add energy to a boiling liquid, it will just boil faster, but the temperature will remain the same, at the boiling point. All the energy goes into phase change, not heating.
Why aerosols should be kept at room temperature?
Because if it is significantly over or under room temp. it will explode
What change in volume would cause the pressure of an enclosed gas to be reduced toone quarter of its original value?
This is the reduction of volume to one-third.
Where would you plant crops that are sensitive to low temperature on a hilly region?
On the hillside.
How do you make thermometers sensitive?
You may increase the heat transfer rate to make it more sensitive to environment such as introducing air flow through thermometer in case of measuring air temperature. It can also design thermometer to be more sensitve with better heat sensitive material and thinner insulation wall. Introducing medium into contact surface (such as oil or water in thermowell) would speed up heat trasfer and make it more sensitive to temperature change.
If temperature is allowed to change in an experiment the temperature would be a?
The answer is variable.
If i have the initial and after temperature how would i be able to find the change in temperature?
You subtract the initial from the after, and the result is the change. If the initial temperature is 50º and the after is 70º, then the change is +20º.
Why aluminium does not used for micrometer frames?
Aluminum is to sensitive to temperature changes and would cause inacurate readings.
A person diagnosed with milk allergy would be sensitive to the milk's?
protein Lactose
How the temperature difference will change if you are near an ocean?
how the temperature difference would change if st. louis were next to an ocean
What would you expect to change a liquid density?
temperature of the fluid.
A change in the rate of enzyme action in aquatic invertebrates would most directly result from a change in what?
temperature of the water
Would a change in the temperature of the core affect plate tectonics?
A change in temperature of the core would probably have to be rather large to be noticeable, however it would affect plate tectonics. Lowering the temperature of the core would slow down activity and raising it would increase.
What would environmental temperature change effect you?
Environmental temperature change would effect everything from crop growth to hibernation. It would effect me as a homo sapien greatly as all of my crops would be dying - leaving me to starve - and the temperatures that I have adapted to would no longer be the ones I would be subjected to. This could potentially be lethal. Of course, the effects of environmental temperature change would vary depending on the scale of the change.
What change in the temperature of the core would affect what?
no se
