Thermal neutral zone

ID: thermal-neutral-zone

The Thermal Neutral Zone (TNZ) refers to a range of environmental temperatures in which an endothermic (warm-blooded) organism can maintain its core body temperature without expending additional energy for thermoregulation. Within this zone, the animal's metabolic rate remains relatively stable, and it can effectively manage heat exchange with its environment through processes such as conduction, convection, and radiation.
