← Human Body & HealthWhich feedback consequence results during thermoregulation cycles when brown adipose tissue activity unexpectedly ceases?
A)Increased shivering thermogenesis compensation occurs
B)Decreased non-shivering heat production emerges✓
C)Elevated peripheral vasodilation reflex heightens
D)Reduced central sympathetic nervous outflow results
💡 Explanation
Decreased non-shivering heat production emerges because when sudden cessation of brown adipose tissue happens, thermogenesis reduces; therefore, non-shivering heat declines rather than shivering or vasodilation responses counteracting low BAT activity after a prior active state.
