Question
in what ways does the skin help to regulate body temperature? select all that apply. shivering adjusting blood flow to dermis evaporative cooling producing sebum
Shivering is a muscle - related response not directly of the skin. Adjusting blood flow to the dermis can either warm (vasoconstriction) or cool (vasodilation) the body. Evaporative cooling occurs when sweat on the skin surface evaporates, taking heat away. Sebum production is mainly for lubricating and protecting the skin, not temperature regulation.
