The body regulates temperature through a physiologic process called negative feedback mechanism. It involves the skin(which has a thermosensitive receptor) sending an impulse or message to the hypothalamus in the brain. The hypothalamus then send an impulse to the different body parts. For example, in a cold weather the blood vessels constrict, behavioural changes occur i.e covering self with a blanket, closing nearby windows and doors e.t.c. When all these occur and the body temperature is back to normal, an impulse is sent again to the hypothalamus that the temperature has been regulated. Then, again the hypothalamus inhibits the process.

1. Stimulus (cold/hot) causes change in variables (body temperature)
2. Change detected by receptors
3. Info gets sent through afferent pathway to control center
4. Response from control center is then sent to effector through efferent pathway
5. Regains homeostatic balance

Human body temperature is the measurement of heat in the human body. The average person's body temperature is about 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
How body regulates temperature?
Body temperature is regulated by homeostasis, or thermoregulation. It also controls pH levels and water levels inside of the human body.
What are the jobs that water does for the human body?

What regulates heat?
A human body regulates its temperature by sweating and shivering. When the body is too hot, glands produce sweat which contains heat and evaporates, taking the heat with it. When a human is too cold, the body starts to shiver, a quick, repeated motion which generated heat from repeated muscle motion.
