Are there any other living things that have an internal body temperature of 98.6 degrees?

Humans have an internal body temperature of 98.6 as well as whales and bats. Most creatures internal temperatures depend on their normal climates and surroundings and what their bodies need to adapt to those outside elements.


How does the body detect heat?

Our bodies have nerve cells called thermoreceptors that measure temperature of our internal body and the external environment. When these nerve cells are stimulated by changes inside our bodies and in the world outside, they send their information to the brain, where it is mostly the job of the medulla oblongata to make changes to keep our internal body temperature constant.


Is internal temperature regulation a characteristic of reptiles?

No, it isn't. They don't have any ability to regulate their own body temperature - they rely on an external source to raise their temperature to a suitable level.


Why can shell eggs be received at an air temperature of F (7C) or lower instead of an internal temperature of 41F (5C) or lower?

Shell eggs can be received at an air temperature of 45°F (7°C) or lower because their internal temperature can remain safe for consumption as long as they are kept at this air temperature. The eggs have a natural protective coating that helps prevent bacterial contamination, and the cooler air temperature slows down the growth of any potential pathogens. However, once eggs are stored at higher temperatures, they must be refrigerated at 41°F (5°C) or lower to ensure safety.


What should the internal temperature for a 20 lb turkey be?

The internal temperature for any size turkey should be 165 degrees F.


Animals that cannot change their internal body temperature?

Most animals cannot willfully change their internal body temperature. For mammals (humans etc) it is usually around 37.5 degrees C, as this is the optimum temperature for enzymes to work in, any higher (40 degrees C+) and they denature, and any cooler and they don't work efficiently, this is how fridges keep fruit from going moldy, and ovens kill bacteria.


How do you lower the temperature of ice?

Ice will get colder than 32° F if it is put in contact with any thermally conductive body which is colder than 32° F.In principal, ice could be any temperature lower than 32° F, e.g., if your freezer temperature is 24° F, the temperature of the ice in your freezer would be 24° F.


Why Need for Regulation Internal Environment?

Our Body Condition are constantly changing. Any drastic change in the blood and thesurrounding tissue fluid will effect chemical reactions in the cells and will harm the body. For Example the temperature of the body must be kept constant because enzymes in the body work within a certain range of temperature and any change in the temperature may result in an inactivation of the enzymes and this will prevent an important reaction from taking place.


At what temperature heat energy is converted to light energy?

Black-body radiation is the type of electromagnetic radiation within or surrounding a body in thermodynamic equilibrium with its environment, or emitted by a black body (an opaque and non-reflective body) held at constant, uniform temperature. The radiation has a specific spectrum and intensity that depends only on the temperature of the body.


What is temperature lower -7 or -2?

Why are the male testes located in the scrotum outside the body?

The scrotum lies outside of the body between the thighs, exposing the testes to a lower temperature than the rest of the body. This lower temperature is necessary for the adequate maturation and development of sperm (spermatogenesis).


Explain how the internal state of balance is maintained in the body?

An internal state of balance is maintained by a term called "homeostasis". In order for the body to be balanced, it must maintain five functions. (1) atmospheric pressure (2) nutrients (3) oxygen (4) water (5) body temperature. Homeostasis describes the body's ability to maintain relatively stable in internal conditions even though the outside world is constantly changing. For example, when a persons body temperature drops, the hypothalamus (located in the brain: responsible for maintaining body temperature) sends a signal that the body is too cold and the hypothalamus will regulate the body temperature to a normal range. Any kind of homeostatic imbalance in the body could trigger severe illnesses.
