Thermoregulation

-a process of regulation of body temperature to ensure the

body physiological state is normal/ constant level

Thermoregulaters
-a animals that can regulate their body temperature

Thermoconformer
-animals that unable to control their body temperature

Ectotherm
-Animals that keep their body temperature by gaining heat
Freeze-tolerance Definition from external source (eg: almost all animals except birds
and mammals)
Definition Endotherm
How animals -Animals that maintain their fairly constant body temperature
Supercooling & anti-freeze compound survive at extreme via metabolic heat production
low
Howtemperature
animals Poikilotherm
survive at extreme -is organism whose internal temperature varies considerably
low temperature
Homeotherm
-is organism which maintains thermal homeostasis

Conduction
How body temperature Temperature Coefficient,Q10
Convection (Tb) heat is transferred -is the rate of biochemical reactions and
Thermoregulation physiological processes due to the changes of body

Radiation (Tb) heat is transferred temperature
Thermoneutral range
Evaporation -the temperature range at which an animals feels
comfortable and metabolic heat production remains
