Organisms use various strategies and adaptations to regulate body temperature and metabolism. The organisms control the exchange of heat by various ways which include physiological, behavioural means and by insulation.
The factors which play most important role in the heat exchange regulation between environment and organism are as follows:
effective temperature difference between organism and environment
Exposed surface area
Evaporatory and circulatory changes
<u>Insulation</u> :Another most common method used for heat exchange.Animals who have furs,feathers and fat layers which play significant role in insulation. They are very much important because they reduce heat exchange amount between environment and organism. The most common example is of Cats. They used to curl up their bodies when they want to sleep in cold environment, they tuck their bodies in their paws and legs, and they wasp their tails around their bodies. When organism uses the food and oxygen the body temperature begins to increase, this method is known as metabolic heat production.
Hello, Saleemsafwah12. The answer would be A - It is younger than the rock layer below. This is because the deeper you go, the older the rock is, opposed to the top layer being the youngest of them all. I hope I helped!! Have a great day.
