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.
Heat exchange with the environment depends on the surface area-to-volume ratio of the body. Assuming that the body shape of an animal is at least somewhat spherical, a considerable decrease in body size would _______ the surface area-to-volume ratio, and the ability to exchange heat with the environment would _______.

What is the primary purpose of applying heat therapy to a patient's inflamed joint? a) To reduce blood flow to the area b) To promote vasodilation and increase blood flow c) To numb the area and reduce pain perception d) To inhibit bacterial growth
After a long, hot run together, your friend tells you that you should dunk your head into a cooler of water to lower your body temperature more rapidly, rather than sitting and waiting to cool down. What do you think? Form a hypothesis, about how the ice-cold water might affect the rate at which your body temperature returns to normal. How could you test your hypothesis? Explain your answer.
A tiger was chasing a mouse across a field. Each was running at the same pace and increased its internal temperature to the same ratio of its initial body temperature. Which explanation correctly describes which animal would return to its initial temperature more quickly after the chase ended? A. The mouse loses water more quickly, and evaporation will cool its body faster because of size. B. The mouse has adapted to running longer distances relative to size and is more fit than the tiger. C. The tiger has a larger surface-area-to-volume ratio and will cool more quickly. D. The tiger can cool more quickly because of decreased metabolic rates within larger animals.
