Explain the structure, mechanisms, and the role of the skin in maintaining a normal body temperature
When body temperature becomes elevated, two things happen in the skin to help cool the body. Identify these two processes and how they help decrease body temperature.
Give a general explanation of homeostasis and then introduce the importance of skin in maintaining homeostasis. You may discuss why people sweat during exercise, why touch and pressure receptors are important, why oil secretion is important, how skin offers protection from disease, or anything else you are interested in.
