Neco Model Questions Vol1 2018 Biology Question 13
Practice objective / multiple choice question 13 from the 2018 Neco Model Questions Vol1 Biology examination.
An animal maintains a core temperature of \(38^{\circ}\text{C}\). Heat loss occurs by conduction with coefficient \(k_{1}=0.2\ \text{kcal}/(\text{°C·h})\) and by convection with coefficient \(k_{2}=0.1\ \text{kcal}/(\text{°C·h})\). In an environment at \(20^{\circ}\text{C}\), total heat loss is given by \(Q = k_{1}\Delta T + k_{2}(\Delta T)^{2}\) where \(\Delta T\) is the temperature difference. If the basal metabolic heat production is \(80\ \text{kcal/h}\), calculate the amount of heat that must be dissipated by evaporation.
