Peripheral Temperature Hypothalamus Respond Explain Difference Receptors Central

Peripheral temperature receptors detect surface temperature changes, while hypothalamic receptors detect changes in core body temperature directly.

Perifeeriset reseptorit havaitsevat pinnan lämpötilan muutoksia, kun taas hypotalamuksen reseptorit havaitsevat suoraan ydinlämpötilan muutoksia.

Front Explain the difference between peripheral temperature receptors and those in the hypothalamus.
Back Peripheral vs central:
  • Peripheral - surface temperature
  • Hypothalamus - blood temperature
  • Peripheral respond to environmental stimuli, hypothalamus respond directly to changes in core temperature
