Mouse Metabolic Rates

Paper Summary:

This paper presents a look at a specific thermoregulation question. It discusses the varying metabolic rates of a mouse at four different temperatures and indicates why one rate may be slower than the others. The describes the experiment conducted to display evidence and explanations.

From the Paper:

"We have all heard about metabolic rates and how they assist in our body temperature among other things. Our thermoregulation occurs to keep our bodies at an operating temperature. If the temperature outside the body changes then our inside thermo regulator adjusts as well to maintain a temperature that can function. In one experiment a mouse was placed in varying temperatures and the metabolic rates were recorded during each difference. It was discovered at temperatures of 38-30, and 10 it has a metabolic rate increase, while at 20 it did not. This was a curious finding until we researched the workings of thermoregulation and endotherms to discover the answer."
