IN YOUR OWN WORDS, explain how you understand homeothermy and also explain how the knowledge of this concept is important in the design of animal production structures. (You have 10 minutes)

If homeothermy refers to the ability of animals to maintain a relatively constant deep temperature while surrounded by a variable external environment, what is homeostasis? Explain this concept IN YOUR OWN WORDS, you may use examples to elaborate on your explanation. (You have 10 minutes)

Explain exhaustively the physiological reaction of animals at temperatures higher than the thermal neutral zone. (You have 10 minutes)

Provide the physiological/biological explanation on why animal production (i.e. weight gain, feed conversion ratio, milk production, egg production, etc) is negatively affected if they experience thermal stress. (You have 10 minutes to answer)
