Textbook Question
Chapter 33, Problem 23RQ
When faced with a sudden drop in environmental temperature, an endothermic animal will:
- experience a drop in its body temperature
- wait to see if it goes lower
- increase muscle activity to generate heat
- add fur or fat to increase insulation

Non shivering thermogenesis
Ruffling the pelage
Eating more Calories
Bouts of intense shivering
Which of the following best describes an example of negative feedback?
The body starts shivering to generate heat when you detect you are too warm.

point of water, what happens to the amount of energy consumed by this animal?
The amount of energy consumed decreases
There is no change in the amount of energy consumed
The amount of energy consumed increases

The branch is cooler than the chameleon, and heat moves directly from the warmer animal to the cooler branch. It opens its mouth, allowing water to evaporate from its tongue and cheeks.
