44 Internal body temperature
Temperature control Thermostat in hypothalamus activates cooling mechanisms. Sweat glands secrete sweat that evaporates, cooling the body. Blood vessels in skin dilate: capillaries fill with warm blood; heat radiates from skin surface. Increased body temperature (such as when exercising or in hot surroundings) Body temperature decreases; thermostat shuts off cooling mechanisms. Homeostasis: Internal body temperature of approximately 36–38°C Body temperature increases; thermostat shuts off warming mechanisms. Decreased body temperature (such as when in cold surroundings) Blood vessels in skin constrict, diverting blood from skin to deeper tissues and reducing heat loss from skin surface. Thermostat in hypothalamus activates warming mechanisms. Skeletal muscles rapidly contract, causing shivering, which generates heat.

45 Gas Exchange in Many Forms…
one-celled amphibians echinoderms insects fish mammals endotherm vs. ectotherm size cilia water vs. land Endotherms have larger surface area of respiratory surfaces because of their increased metabolic demands. Gills, trachea, lungs

156 CFC and Ozone depletion
Chlorine from CFCs interacts with ozone (O3), forming chlorine monoxide (CIO) and oxygen (O2). Chlorine atoms O2 Chlorine O3 CIO O2 Sunlight causes Cl2O2 to break down into O2 and free chlorine atoms. The chlorine atoms can begin the cycle again. CIO Cl2O2 Two CIO molecules react, forming chlorine peroxide (Cl2O2). Sunlight
