Homeostasis
As body temperature increases, what homeostatic response would the body produce?
Thyroxine would be released to increase the metabolic rate.
Vasoconstriction would occur so that blood is withdrawn from close to the skin.
Skeletal muscles may shiver to increase muscular heat production.
Sweating would increase so that evaporation would transfer heat to the air.
Sweating would increase so that evaporation would transfer heat to the air.
Homeostasis tends to result in a response that opposes the detected change. So something would happen to promote the loss of heat from the body. The evaporation of sweat from the skin will produce a cooling effect on the superficial tissues. The other choices would generate more heat or decrease heat loss.
