What is the Thermo regulation ?
Thermoregulation
The temperature of the body is regulated by hypothalamus
Sweating begins almost precisely at a skin temperature of 37 C
If the skin temperature drops below 37 C a variety of responses are initiated to conserve the heat in the body and to increase heat production
