Chapter 32, Problem 2TYU
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The rate of the exchange of heat between an animal and its environment is called as the phenomenon of “Thermoregulation”. These animals generate heat and maintain the temperature within the environment by a flow of air over the body surface. The heat gets exchanged between the blood vessels in the circulatory system and the external environment.

Which of the following statements is True?a. Ectotherms generate most of their body heatmetabolically.b. Ectotherms include birds and mammals.c. Ectotherms experience variable body temperatures.d. Ectotherms are known as “warm-blooded” animals.
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
A. increase; increase
B. increase; stay about the same
C. increase; decrease
D. decrease; increase
E. decrease; stay about the same
Which of the following occurs in the legs of goose (bird) standing on a frozen pond?
Group of answer choices
A. Warm blood from the body flows toward the legs of the bird.
B. Cool blood from the feet flows toward the body of the bird.
C. Heat is transferred from warm blood to cooler blood, reducing loss of heat to the environment.
