Score is an old word for the number 20. = (4*20+7)years = 87 years. And in the Bible: âthree score years and tenâ meaning: âseventy years oldâ (3*20+10) (Psalm 90). This was thought to be a normal life span.
One of the functions of the Integumentary System is the negative feedback, homeostatic control of the core body temperature. This is called thermoregulation.
In human beings, the homeostatic regulation of body temperature involves such mechanisms as sweating when the internal temperature becomes excessive and shivering to produce heat, as well as the generation of heat through metabolic processes when the internal temperature falls too low.
