During exercise, the heat produced by muscular contraction accumulates in the body, and the rectal temperature normally rises as high as 40 °C (104 °F). This rise is due in part to the inability of the heat-dissipating 散热mechanisms to handle the greatly increased amount of heat produced, but there is evidence that in addition there is an elevation of the body temperature at which the heat- dissipating mechanisms are activated during exercise . Body temperature also rises slightly during emotional excitement, probably owing to uncoscious tensing of the muscles. It is chronically elevated by a
