The heart is a vital organ, and its functioning is essential to life.
All your other organs may fail, and you will still be alive. Even if your brain stops working, and your heart is healthy, you will be alive in the vegetative state where you won't be conscious at all. However, once your heart stops working, you die, which means it is the most important organ in your body.

What would happen on a hot day if your brain did not receive input that your body was starting to heat up
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The body will overheat

Explanation:

If the brain of an individual does not receive input that the body was starting to heat up on a hot day, <u>the setpoint temperature of the body would be exceeded and the body will overheat. If the condition persists for a while, the entire systems of the body may shut down due to overheating. </u>

Normal homeostatic response requires that the brain (the control center) receives a message from the skin (the sensor) about a rise in the body's temperature. In turn, the brain will set mechanisms that will bring the body's temperature back to normal in motion, including vasodilation of the blood vessels in the skin to allow more blood into the skin which in turn causes more heat loss to the surrounding.<em> Thus, an individual starts sweating and the evaporation of the sweat causes cooling and a return of the body to the setpoint temperature.</em>
