The skin acts as a barrier against germs and also controls body temperature?

True. The skin acts as a barrier against germs and also controls body temperature.

Is it normal to have a temperature of 96 degrees or should i call the doctor?

Normal human body temperature, also known as normothermia or euthermia, is a concept that depends upon the place in the body at which the measurement is made, and the time of day and level of activity of the body. Although the value 37.0 C (98.6 F) is the commonly accepted average core body temperature, the value of 36.8±0.7 °C, or 98.2±1.3 °F is an average oral (mouth under the tongue) measurement. Rectal measurements, or measurements taken directly inside the body cavity, are typically slightly higher.

Can taking too many paracetamol cause a lowering of the body temperature?

Yes, to room temperature. Taking too many paracetamol will kill your liver, which you need to live, hence the name.

When body temperature rises blood vessels in the skin do what?

When body temperature rises, the blood vessels in the skin dilate? This helps to decrease the temp of blood and thus decrease the body's core temp by having cooler blood circulating.

Why do you need normal body temperature for survival?

If you stand in fire, (DO NOT DEMONSTRATE) you feel like the fire is killing you and eventually will. Thus it is most important that we remain in normal body temperature.

Can metformin and glyburide cause rapid heart beat?

Yes it can if it causes hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). Hypoglycemia symptoms may include increased heart rate, dizziness, weakness, anxiety, headache, or sweating. The manufacturer lists lower or uneven heart rate as a possible side effect of the drug as well, though that seems to be rare.

How long does a shunt last?

It depends. Most Ventriculoperitoneal ( VP for short) shunts may be implanted for life for the treatment of hydrocephalus ( excessive cerebral spinal fluid, or CSF, build up in the brain ). The type of shunt and the health problem it is treating will ultimately determine the length of implantation.

What is the temperature in the colon?

It can be assumed it shares the normal temperature of the rest of the body, which is about 98.7 degrees Fahrenheit.

Could Ear drum eruption related to low body temperature?

yes it can, I had a ear infection at the same time I had a fever my ear drum erupted and now all this stuff is draining out of it

What should you do if you suspect someone of hypothermia?

What purpose do muscles serve?

Muscles convert the body's chemical energy into a physical contraction. In doing so, they provide the basic ability to move the bones and other systems of the body, which allows the body to function.

Your body is made of what?

Your body is made up of millions of tiny cells. You have lots of different kinds of cells. Each kind has a special job to do. Your cells work together to keep you alive.

How do the body temperatures of the two organisms change as the ground temperature changes?

thermoregulation occurs in ectotermic & endothermic organism according to the change of ground temperature.

Generally ectotermic / poikilothermic animals obtain heat from the enviroment than the metabolic rate to raise their body temperatures is bcoz,they have low metabolic rate & unable to maintain their body temperature within the narrow limits using physiological mechanism.Example of organism are non-vertabrates,fish, amphibia & reptiles.Lizard are reptiles, which we noticed that they are nocturnal.this is bcoz during day time they move to dark area / find shelter under rock in order to obtain heat energy from the surrounding or enviromemt.So they able to save energy to prey at night time.

However, endothermic or homoiothermic animals rely on metabolic heat to maintain their body temperature able to maintain the body temperature by physiological mechanism.example are bird & mammal's.

This is how different kind of organism maintain the body temperature according to the enviroment.

29.5 cl covert to body temperature?

I must assume that you are referring to 29.5 degrees Celsius. Normal human body temperature
is 37.0 degrees Celsius. The abbreviation for Celsius is C , such as 37.0 C. The temperature you
have given, 29.5 C , is far below the normal human body temperature.
