In fruit flies, an enzyme called DESAT1, a delta -9-desaturase, is a key player in
responses to temperature changes at both the cellular level, where it influences membrane fluidity by synthesizing monounsaturated fatty acids, and at the whole - organism level, where it controls temperature - influenced behaviors like mating.
In short, perspiration is the body's internal cooling system and since your body's internal temperature rises during exercise, it automatically begins producing sweat in
response to temperature changes with the purpose of avoiding the dangerous effects of elevated temperature on internal organs.
The properties include conductivity, stiffness and compressibility, heat transfer and
response to temperature change, and the team plans to incorporate more properties as they collect more data, Isayev said.
Physicist Brandon Brown of the University of San Francisco and his colleagues devised a way to test the gel's
response to a temperature change.
Dr. Lacis, I would respectfully point out that you claimed CO2 was a thermostat for climate even though historically it has acted in
response to temperature changes, unlike any other thermostat.
Co2, is NOT a cause of temp change, it is
a response to temperature change.
So water dances at many speeds, from the unimaginable fast vibrations of its molecules responding to thermal infrared radiation, to the moment - to - moment dance of its phase changes in
response to temperature changes, to the week - long dance of its vapor in and out of the atmosphere, to the slow geological pavanes of rock, air and life, of which it too forms an inextricable part.
Slow feedbacks have little effect on the immediate planetary energy balance, instead coming into play in
response to temperature change.
