1. If outside temperature is lower, best way to keep optimum temperature is to cover as much exposed skin surface as possible, and to intake more calories. Calories are what we need for energy, and some of the energy we get from calories goes into heating the body, since a majority of our body's composition is water. if outside temperature hotter, expose more skin surface area, as it will increase the surface area that can help to dissipate heat. body regulates it's own temperature in cold by lessening blood flow to extremeties like the limbs so less body heat is lost to the outside environment. most of the blood would be isolated at the core of the body, basically the trunk, and some to the head. when it's hot, the opposite happens as more blood is sent to extremities, where it can be cooled down and where more heat can be expelled via sweating. this cooling system of increasing blood flow to wider skin areas is what Elephants employ by having their thin, large ears.
