Fill in the blanks 1 thermonuetral temperature for Homo sapi

Fill in the blanks:

1) thermonuetral temperature for Homo sapiens is ______. What woud happen to the metabolic rate if the room temperature was decreased by 20\'C__________. With this change in metabolic rate would more or less food need to be consumed_________. Under these circumstances the secretion of whihc hormone (epinephrine, glucagon, insulin) is likely to increase______, explain why this is the case

Solution

Thermo neutral temperature for Homo sapiense is 37 C. What would happen to the metabolic rate if the room temperature was decreased by 20 o C. There is no change in the human body temperature, because human is homeothermic. By increasing catabolic rate, control his body temperature. WiWith this change iin mtabolic rate wold mre or less food need to consumed. This consumed food, under these circumstances Epinephrine and Glucagon are likely to increse and promotes catabolism.
