Mammals lose heat because they are often warmer than their surroundings, it is a law of thermodynamics that heat flows from warm to cool.

How does body size affect heat loss in mammals?

The more fat that there is on an animal the more heat it will be able to store, because the fat and blubber trap in heat.


What is insensible heat loss?

Also Latent Heat Loss. The heat that is lost through the continuous, unnoticed water loss that occurs with vaporization accounting for 10% of basal heat production. Evaporation accounts for the greatest heat loss when body head increases.. Does not result in temperature increase of surrounding air.

How can heat loss can be increased?

Heat loss can be increased by increasing the temperature difference between the object and its surroundings, increasing the surface area of the object, and decreasing the insulation around the object. Additionally, air movement can increase heat loss through convection.


Will an unmeasured heat loss increase or decrease the calculated value of specific heat?

An unmeasured heat loss during a calorimetry experiment would typically lead to an underestimation of the heat absorbed by the substance being measured. As a result, the calculated value of specific heat would increase, since specific heat is determined by the ratio of heat transferred to the mass and the temperature change. Therefore, unaccounted heat loss skews the results, making the specific heat appear higher than it actually is.

What increases heat loss in the body?

Factors that can increase heat loss in the body include cold temperatures, wind chill, wet clothing, high humidity, and lack of insulation or protective layers. Physical activity and sweating can also lead to increased heat loss by evaporation.


Which is not a factor that will increase an object temperature?

Decreasing the object's surface area would not increase its temperature. Factors that can increase an object's temperature include increasing the heat source, reducing heat loss to the surroundings, and decreasing the object's thermal conductivity.
