tremoregulation
Thermoregulation is the physiological process by which an organism maintains its internal body temperature within a specific range, regardless of external environmental conditions. This is crucial for optimal metabolic function and survival. Humans, as endotherms, generate their own internal heat through metabolic processes and have sophisticated mechanisms to dissipate or conserve heat.
Key components of thermoregulation involve sensors that detect temperature changes, both in the core body and
Responses to cold include vasoconstriction, which reduces blood flow to the skin to minimize heat loss, and
Thermoregulation is a dynamic process, constantly adjusting to maintain homeostasis. Factors such as age, activity level,
