Perspiration, known more commonly as sweating, is an autonomic bodily response that decreases body temperature. During perspiration, the skin will secrete sweat that will ther- moregulate body tissues in certain conditions. Evaporation of sweat from the skin surface has a cooling effect due to evaporative cooling. In addition, the blood vessels will increase in diameter via a process called vasodilation, which will bring them closer to the skin and allow heat to more easily dissipate from the body. 3 increased blood temperature identified by central receptors vasodilation of peripheral vessels and skin arterioles to transfer more heat to the skin surface 5 A diagram of thermoregulation in the human body. 2 hypothalamus receives input and activates SNS response heat leaves the body and blood temperature lowers Respond to each part in 2 to 3 complete sentences. activation of sweat glands to begin sweating (a) Identify the type of feedback loop presented in the diagram.
