Band cells are the immature form of neutrophils and are produced rapidly during an infection. A large percentage of band cells in a venous blood sample indicate an infectious process occurring in the body.
Sensitivity to temperature is a skin sense that is related to the human need to maintain internal temperature balance or thermal homeostasis. Temperature sensitivity is important in protecting one's self from intense temperature that may cause damage to the body.
How our body maintains a constant temperature. Temperature receptors in the skin detect changes in the external temperature. They pass this information to the processing centre in the brain, called the hypothalamus. The processing centre also has temperature receptors to detect changes in the temperature of the blood.The processing centre automatically triggers changes to the effectors to ensure our body temperature remains constant, at 37Â°C. The effectors are sweat glands and muscles.he processing centre also has temperature receptors to detect changes in the temperature of the blood.
