Igcse Model Questions Vol1 2022 Biology Question 34
Practice objective / multiple choice question 34 from the 2022 Igcse Model Questions Vol1 Biology examination.
A small mammal produces metabolic heat at a rate of \(70\,\text{W}\). Heat is lost to the environment by convection, described by \(\text{heat loss}=hA(T_{\text{body}}-T_{\text{ambient}})\) where the heat‑transfer coefficient \(h=10\,\text{W·m}^{-2}\text{·°C}^{-1}\) and the animal's surface area \(A=0.5\,\text{m}^2\). If the ambient temperature is \(25\,\text{°C}\), calculate the equilibrium body temperature \(T_{\text{body}}\) in degrees Celsius.
