Which outcome occurs when a coyote's superficial blood vessels experience sustained vasodilation in elevated ambient temperature?

A)Augmented convective heat loss
B)Increased shivering thermogenesis
C)Reduced basal metabolic rate
D)Intensified piloerection response

💡 Explanation

Convective heat loss increases with vasodilation because this process causes peripheral blood flow into skin; therefore, heat dissipates to the environment from surface blood, rather than shivering which increases heat rate.
