Score is an old word for the number 20. = (4*20+7)years = 87 years. And in the Bible: âthree score years and tenâ meaning: âseventy years oldâ (3*20+10) (Psalm 90). This was thought to be a normal life span.
One of the functions of the Integumentary System is the negative feedback, homeostatic control of the core body temperature. This is called thermoregulation.
Core temperature is regulated by the hypothalamus (in the brain), which is often called the bodys thermostat. The hypothalamus responds to various temperature receptors located throughout the body and makes physiological adjustments to maintain a constant core temperature.For example, on a hot day, temperature receptors located in the skin send signals to the hypothalamus to cool the body by increasing the sweat rate.he hypothalamus responds to various temperature receptors located throughout the body and makes physiological adjustments to maintain a constant core temperature.
