← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence results when peripheral vasodilation exceeds the available hypothalamic hormones?
A)Increased shivering thermogenesis threshold
B)Compromised blood brain barrier integrity
C)Induced hyperthermia resistant to cooling
D)Profound systemic hypothermia develops✓
💡 Explanation
Systemic hypothermia develops because vasodilation increases heat loss at the periphery, overwhelming available hormone thermoregulation. Therefore, the body cannot maintain its core temperature, leading to hypothermia, rather than localized issues like BBB compromise.
