Summary Introduction
To determine:
Why stroke results in a fall or rise in the normal body temperature.
Introduction:
Stroke is also known as an attack in the brain. It occurs, when there is disruption of the blood flow to the brain. Due to the death of brain cells, there is loss of activity in the brain.

Which of the following responses is an effector activated by the hypothalamus when the body temperature is lower than the set point?
a. skeletal muscles contract
b. sweat glands initiate sweating
c. skin blood vessels dilate
d. move to a warmer location or put on a sweater
Perspiration, known more commonly as sweating, is an autonomic bodily response that
decreases body temperature. During perspiration, the skin will secrete sweat that will ther-
moregulate body tissues in certain conditions. Evaporation of sweat from the skin surface
has a cooling effect due to evaporative cooling. In addition, the blood vessels will increase
in diameter via a process called vasodilation, which will bring them closer to the skin and
allow heat to more easily dissipate from the body.
