Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The thin layer of insulation between the body core and surface means that the animal has a high thermal conductivity, which refers to how easily heat can flow through a material or substance. This high thermal conductivity allows the animal to quickly lose or gain heat, depending on environmental conditions, which can be an advantage in certain situations such as regulating body temperature in a hot or cold environment.
