Which organ system is responsible for regulating body temperature

Biology
1 answer:
nexus9112 [7]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Simplified answer: it's actually many systems that work together, just in different ways!

Explanation:

A large part of the body that is responsible for the regulation of temperature is the nervous system. The hypothalamus, which is a portion of the brain, controls the regulation of body temperature. The process that allows the human body to maintain its core temperature is called thermoregulation. The hypothalamus sends signals to various parts of the body, such as the glands and nervous system, when its core internal temperature begins to fluctuate too high or low.

However, the endocrine and the excretory systems also play a role in the regulation of body temperature.

Hope this helped!

The reason why we call it a phospholipid bilayer is because it's created exactly out of that - phosphobilipids :)

Phosphorous (chemical element) + bi (means two) + lipid (means fat)

Bill just had surgery on a severely broken leg. he has a cast from his hip to his toes. he was in the hospital for about a week
labwork [276]
This is a case of pulmonary embolism. In a patient treated for a broken leg, immobilization of the affected limb is strongly advised; although immobilization imposes a risk to develop deep vein thrombosis or the development of clot most commonly in the popliteal veins. This clot or thrombus can be dislodged and can travel to the right ventricle then pumped into the pulmonary circulation; causing dyspnea, chest pain, and hemoptysis.
