Body heat is produced within your cells. For one, when you exercise the chemical energy used in the muscles contracting is not efficiently turned into mechanical energy and the excess is lost as heat. The various metabolic reactions occurring withing your body also produce heat such as the breakdown of chemicals within your cells. There really is no one place where body heat is produced.
Hope this helps!

Does fever decrease the metabolic rate of the body to conserve energy?
It decrease the metabolic rate. This is because Metabolic actually produce heat, if you are in fever state, the body will slow down rate of metabolic as less heat will be produced.
What are the gametes produced from the human body?
gametes are produced in the ovaries and testes
Which organ of the body generates the most heat?
Liver is the organ, which generates the most heat in the body. Liver has heavy blood supply and is the principle organ of metabolism. So it is the organ which generates the most heat in the body.
How do sweat glands help regulate the bodies temperature?
Sweat glands are intended to help regulate the body temperature in a very simple way. These glands release heated water from the body.
What is the significance of uncoupling proteins in adipose tissue?
increased loss of body heat
What is the balance between the heat loss and the heat produced by the body?
the right side
The process by which the body regulates between heat and heat produced in known as?
Thermoregulation
What percent of the heat produced in the body is the result in muscle contraction?
all
What the characteristics of thermal energy?
It is produced by clothing such as sweaters, blankets, etc. Thermal energy is produced by the body in reaponse to heat.
What are the characteristics thermal energy?
It is produced by clothing such as sweaters, blankets, etc. Thermal energy is produced by the body in reaponse to heat.
What can serve as modes of both heat gain and heat loss from the body?
There are two sources by which heat is produced in our body.Endogenous sources and Exogenous sources.Endogenous sources heat by our metabolic and muscle activity. Exogenous sources heat when the environmental temperature exceeds our body temperature and that is transferred to our body.
How long does a body stay cold after death?
Forever. No cell action = no heat produced.
What is the process by which the body makes heat?
Making heat, or thermogenesis, is actually a side effect of cellular metabolism. As energy is produced, heat is released as a byproduct of the chemical reactions of energy production. Heat can also be produced on a larger scale by shivering (or rapid contraction and relaxation) of the muscles.
During exercise approximately what percent of the energy which is produced is released as heat in the body?
70-9-%
How much heat is lost by the human body each day?
I think we each emit 100 Watts,the majority from our head.
Why do you rub your hands together when you feel cold?
Rubing hands creates friction due to which heat is produced and you feel warmth; the same reason your body shivers when you are cold, the extra movement creats heat for your body.
Why winter is good for bodybuilder?
during exercise heat is produced which leads to fatigue and low exercising potential.Deviation from optimal core body temperature interfears with the body metabolism hence the anablolism i,e the muscle mass increasing proccess is effected.In winter as the environmental temperature is low it helps in dissipation of excessive body heat produced by exercise.So we can say that winter is good for body building.
