One of the mechanisms that help the body to conserve its heat is the slowing down of the blood flow towards the parts of the body exposed to cold temperatures. Another is to shiver when it is cold to keep the warmth of the body through movement.

The mechanisms that are used to help the body conserve heat are vasoconstriction and shivering. Vasoconstriction occurs when the blood vessels constrict causing the blood pressure to rise. Shivering occurs when the body becomes cold and it helps to maintain homeostasis.

wolverine [178]

Lycaon represents the worst of the iron age in his attempt to feed jupiter once living flesh.

<h3>What is iron age?</h3>

The iron Age is the final epoch of the three-age division of the prehistory and protohistory of humanity.

It was preceded by the Stone Age, and the Bronze Age.

Who is lycaon?

In Greek mythology, Lycaon was a king of Arcadia who, in the most popular version of the myth, tested Zeus' omniscience by serving him the roasted flesh of Lycaon's own son Nyctimus, in order to see whether Zeus was truly all-knowing.

Thus, Lycaon represents the worst of the iron age in his attempt to feed jupiter once living flesh.
