experiment was to learn about the thermoregulation‚ and more specifically ectotherms. The experiment was designed to learn how ectotherms rely on external temperature for heat. The hypothesis of the experiment was whether there was temperature variance between two habitats‚ and how it affects the ectotherms. To test the hypothesis‚ we used I-buttons to record the temperature and ANOVA test for p-value. The results supported the hypothesis. Introduction: Thermoregulation is a process that allows your

According to Model 2‚ the Hypothalamus is the portion of the brain that contains sensors that monitor body temperature. 10a. Two mechanisms the body uses to cool itself are when blood vessels in skin dialate to radiate heat and sweat glands increase sweat production. 10b. Two mechanisms the body uses to heat itself are when blood vessels in the skin
