At what temperature should the human body be maintained?Around 37°C Around 25°C Around 40°C Around 35°C 2Where in the body is your core temperature monitored and controlled?MusclesSkinSpinal cordThermoregulatory centre in the brain3What happens during vasoconstriction? The blood vessels that supply your skin capillaries become narrowerThe blood vessels move closer to the skin surfaceThe skin capillaries constrictThe blood vessels that supply your skin capillaries become wider4How do vasodilation and sweating help to reduce body temperature?By causing the muscles to contractBy increasing the transfer of energy in the form of heat from the skin to the environmentBy causing the body hairs to stand on endBy reducing the transfer of energy in the form of heat from the skin to the environment5Why do the hairs on our body stand on end when we are cold? To prevent vasodilationTo aid the evaporation of sweatTo prevent air trapping under themTo allow air to become trapped under them6How does shivering help to raise body temperature? It requires lots of respiration which generates heat It prevents sweatingIt causes vasoconstrictionIt causes vasodilation

Why does muscle activity affect the temperature of the body?Multiple ChoiceThe rate of chemical reactions increases in muscle fibers during contraction, so the rate of heat production also increases.Muscle contraction generates pyrogens, which reset the body's internal thermostat to a higher temperature.Muscle activity directs more warm blood to the muscles away from the central core, causing a cooling effect on your internal organs.Increased muscle activity causes a rise in adipose stores, which increases the insulation value of the body.
