Q. A young hiker has been on a long walk. He is now sitting in front of a small campfire‚ drinking a hot cup of soup. It is dark and a frost is beginning to form on his tent. Explain the hiker’s heat gains and losses‚ and what mechanisms would come into effect to keep his temperature at the desired 37ºC. Humans are subject to vast changes in environmental temperatures‚ but our complex biochemical systems have a major limitation in that enzymes only operate within a relatively narrow temperature
