Normal human body temperature

Homeostasis is defined as the means by which the internal atmosphere of the human body remains balanced regardless of the numerous changes within the environment (Mastrangelo, 2013).

Within the ANS, is the sympathic nervous system (SNS) and the parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS). Predominately, thermoregulation is controlled by the SNS with little contribution from the PSNS (Chawla, 2013). Although the human body experiences various temperature deviations,…
