Homeothermic Endothermy

Homeothermic Endothermy. How to Maintain Constant T. To maintain a constant temperature: Rate of Heat Gain = Rate of Heat Loss. Heat Loss:. C= Coefficient of Thermal Conductivity. With Evaporation:. Metabolic rate = Heat Loss rate (endothermic homeothermy). Euthermic Homeothermy.
