Which outcome occurs when a fox’s body temperature exceeds its normal range, causing peripheral vasodilation amidst intense sun exposure?

A)Enhanced convective heat dissipation occurs rapidly
B)Metabolic rate increases due to thermogenesis
C)Hypothalamus triggers thyroid hormone production
D)Pilomotor muscles induce trapping of hair

💡 Explanation

When the fox overheats, vasodilation increases blood flow to the skin's surface; therefore, convective heat dissipation occurs to release heat, because thermal gradient drive dissipation, rather than the alternatives being metabolic consequences or muscle action.
