Step 1: Introduction

Anatomy and physiology are the branches of biology, anatomy deals with the study of the structure of organisms and their parts while physiology deals with the study of the way those parts function together. Animal physiology is the systematic study of the supporting features, roles, and processes of animals or their parts. The discipline includes fundamental homeostatic processes, such as the control of temperature, blood flow, and hormones.

Homeostasis is the mechanism by which internal variables, like body temperature, blood pressure, blood glucose level, etc., are maintained within a setpoint value suitable to the system.

The integumentary and muscular systems operate together to support the body control of a stable inside temperature. If body temperature increases, blood canals in the skin expand, enabling higher blood to circulate near the skin’s surface. This enables heat to disperse into the skin and the surrounding air. The skin can also generate sweat in high-temperature conditions; the sweat helps to cool the body as it evaporates.
Skeletal muscles help regulate temperature homeostasis in the body by producing heat in cold environmental conditions. Muscle contraction needs energy and generates heat as a byproduct of metabolism.
