8. "Thermoregulation" is the process in which your body regulates hypothalamus temperature to its normal body temperature. 9. Hypothalamus is the portion of the brain that contains sensors that monitor body temperature. 10. a) The hypothalamus senses the high temperature so it sends sends to the brain.
