1. body temperature

   Body temperature is a measure of the internal heat of the body, expressed in degrees, which represents the balance between the amount of heat produced by the body and the amount of heat lost to the environment. It is typically regulated within a narrow range for optimal bodily function, with normal values at around 37 degrees Celsius or 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit in humans. Any significant deviation from this could indicate a health issue.
