If a person’s circulatory system does not function well, how might thermoregulation in his or her body be affected?

Biology

The hypothalamus detects slightest changes in internal temperature as blood flows in the brain and send impulses to appropriate responding organs/tissues to bring it back to normal level. These organs include the skin, liver and muscles.

Parts of skin involved in thermoregulation are the sweat glands,as temperature increases sweat glands are stimulated to release sweat. As the water in sweat evaporates,it absorbs heat from the body ( latent heat of vaporization) through radiation and convectional current. When the body temperature decreases, the blood vessels in the skin constricts( vasoconstriction). This reduces blood flow to the skin hence less heat is lost to the internal environment.

Metabolic activities of the liver and muscles increase to raise heat production when the body temperature is low

What is the most likely risk when a society uses wind as an energy source? A. Risk from radioactive material
lesya692 [45]
I think the answer is B because when you think of wind as an energy source you think of wind turbines,, the big things that turn high in the sky. And since it’s in the sky, birds and other flying animals can fly into it and die. Furthermore it can’t be A since wind energy doesn’t use radioactive material, for C I do not believe it uses ground water, and for D the small greenhouse gas emissions it may make to convert the wind energy into electricity (it might not produce any, it depends on how far science has come in the past few years) would be nothing compared to the amount produced burning coal or using gasoline or something like that.
