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.
The body takes a very active role in temperature regulation. The temperature of the body is regulated by neural feedback mechanisms which operate primarily through the hypothalmus. The hypothalmus contains not only the control mechanisms, but also the key temperature sensors.
