Transcribed Image Text:**Question 46:**
What does this figure show?
(Graph/Diagram Explanation: The figure is a line graph illustrating the fluctuation of oral body temperature (°C) across different times of the day. The x-axis represents time, specifically marked intervals: Midnight, Noon, Midnight, Noon, and Midnight again, covering two full 24-hour cycles. The y-axis shows the oral body temperature in degrees Celsius, ranging from 36°C to 37°C.
Key features of the graph:
- There are shaded and non-shaded vertical areas. Shaded areas are labeled 'Dark,' representing nighttime or absence of light, and non-shaded areas represent daytime or presence of light.
- The red line represents oral body temperature changes through the day, peaking and troughing according to the time and light conditions.
- The peaks in the graph correspond to the late afternoon and early evening, while the troughs correspond to the late night and early morning.)
Possible answers:
- ○ The response loop associated with body temperature
- ○ A circadian rhythm
- ○ A negative feedback loop
- ○ The release of oxytocin each day
