← Nature & AnimalsWhich thermoregulatory outcome occurs when a mammal suddenly enters warm environment through cutaneous vasodilation in periphery?
A)Reduced metabolic rate from cellular change
B)Increased core temperature above thresholds
C)Elevated shivering rate with exhaustion
D)Enhanced heat loss due to conduction✓
💡 Explanation
When warm causing cutaneous vasodilation, it causes mechanism of an increase transfer as more blood flows through dilated vessels, thus conductive heat losses through skin enhanced. Therefore causing 'Enhanced heat loss' rather than raised core, cellular metabolic slowing or exhausting rates because each requires alternative mechanisms.
