Please can anyone Explain the mechanisms of energy loss that assist in controlling body temperature?

I think you need to be more clear, or we can't help you with your homework. Do you mean like Convection (sweating). Or Expelling heat through breathing. Or heat loss through you head?Please can anyone Explain the mechanisms of energy loss that assist in controlling body temperature?
Sweating. As it is evaporated some body heat is used up cooling us down





Capillary bed dilation. We become flushed. Heat can radiate outPlease can anyone Explain the mechanisms of energy loss that assist in controlling body temperature?
Convection, conduction, evaporation, and radiation.





For what reason do you ask?





And the 4 above do not ';control' body temp, they are mechanisms of heat loss.





Your body temp is controlled intrinsically, and is affected by external factors.
