Question 1 (1 point)
Which of the following is NOT something that can cause your core temperature to change?

Question 1 options:

Fevers caused by disease


Enzymes denaturing in your cells


When the external temperature gets really hot or cold


Energy produced by your muscles when you exercise

Question 2 (1 point)
Why is it so important to maintain a core temperature of 37°C?

Question 2 options:

Your core temperature doesn't stay at 37°C, it will actually change and reflect the temperature outside.


Your body can only make cells at 37°C, and we need cells because that is what our body is made of.


It is just best to keep that temperature so you don't shiver or sweat.


The enzymes in our cells work best at this temperature and these enzymes are needed to carry out all the reactions that happen in our body to keep us alive.

Question 3 (1 point)
What happens to your enzymes when they get too hot?

Question 3 options:

The enzymes denature and the active site alters, so the substrate can't fit in there properly and chemical reactions don't happen as fast.


The enzyme changes shape, but the substrate still fits in and the chemical reaction can still take place.


The enzyme dissolves and the pieces then need to be rebuilt before they can be used again.


Nothing, the enzyme can handle temperature changes in the body.

Question 4 (1 point)
Which organ is super important in helping you in both conserving heat and cooling your off?

Skeletal System


Excretory System

Integumentary (Skin) System

Question 5 (1 point)
The __________ is the temperature-regulating center of the brain and can detect temperature changes to the blood as it flows through the brain.

Question 5 options:

Skin


Hypothalamus


Nervous system


Thymus

Question 6 (1 point)
Which of the following best describes how your muscular and skin systems work to warm you up if you get too cold?

Question 6 options:

Your muscles begin to contract fast and this movement helps you warm up


Small erector muscles work to raise the hairs on your skin. This helps trap the air close to the skin, goose bumps appear and the air acts as an insulator


blood vessels narrow keeping the blood away from the skin to keep you warm


Sweat glands release sweat to ensure you stay the proper temperature

Question 7 (1 point)
Which of the following best describes how your circulatory and skin systems work together to cool you off when you get too hot?

Question 7 options:

Your blood vessels (capillaries) dilate allowing blood to flow near the surface of your skin. This allows the heat to be released through your skin to help you cool off.


You begin to sweat which leaves salt on your skin after the sweat evaporates.


The hairs on your skin will lie flat to allow better evaporation of sweat and to allow the heat to be released into the air


Goose bumps show up to help your muscles contract to help cool you off

Question 8 (1 point)
If your core temperature falls too low, it is called __________________

Question 8 options:

hyperthermia


thermoregulation


hypothermia


dehydration

Question 9 (1 point)
Extreme tiredness and lethargy (slow, not moving much) are the first signs of someone experiencing hypothermia?

Question 9 options:
True
False
Question 10 (1 point)
When people exercise in hot weather, which of the following could happen?

Question 10 options:

People can acclimate to the hotter conditions over time producing more sweat that has lower salt levels


Homeostasis, this could cause their blood sugar levels to rise


Excessive sweating can lead to dehydration and heat stroke. Drinking lots of water can help prevent this situation from happening
