Match the following mechanisms (Column I) with their correct example (Column II).
Column I |
Column II |
A. Heat-generating and heat-retaining mechanisms |
i. increased metabolic rate (thyroid hormones, sympathetic nervous system) |
B. Heat-dissipating mechanisms |
ii. vasodilation of blood vessels of the skin
(decreased sympathetic tone) |
|
iii. increased activity of sympathetic cholinergic
fibers to sweat glands. |
