Bumblebees show some ability to control their
own body temperature. During cold weather,
bumblebees have been observed warming their
flight muscles by shivering. The bees are able to
maintain a body temperature several degrees
above that of the surrounding air. Regulation of
their internal body temperature is an example of
(1) diffusion (3) respiration
(2) synthesis (4) homeostasis
