and the peripheral thermoreceptors. The peripheral thermo-receptor is located in the dermal layer of the skin and is able to detect a change in external temperatures - which is the stimulus. The hypothalamus is a portion of the brain that is the control centre for thermoregulation. Thermo-receptors on the anterior region of the hypothalamus are able to detect the change in blood temperature. As these receptors detect the change in temperature - derailing from the set point of 36.7C‚ the hypothalamus
