Although the body strives to maintain a core temperature of 36.5 to 37 degrees Celsius, over five million deaths annually highlight limits in temperature regulation.
Metabolism plays a crucial role in regulating body temperature by breaking down food for energy, enabling responses like blood vessel constriction when it’s cold.
Hypothermia occurs when body temperature drops significantly, prompting dangerous symptoms such as trembling, slow speech, and potential loss of bodily function.
A temperature of 32 degrees Celsius results in the cessation of trembling, a troubling sign indicating the body's diminished ability to respond and function normally.
