Using figure, match the following descriptions to the most appropriate letter on the diagram Letters: A B C D E Definitions: 1- Information about body temperature is sent through afferent pathways to the brain. 2- Free nerve endings in the skin detect changes in skin temperature (getting colder). 3- Appropriate response information is sent through efferent pathways. 4- A change in the temperature of the external environment (getting colder). 5- Skeletal muscles respond with shivering reflex which provides heat to return the body's temperature to a homeostatic balance or "ideal" value.

When a baby suckles at its mother's breast the stimulus at the breast is sent to the mother's brain (a region called the hypothalamus).
