Human Skeletal Muscle Mitochondrial Uncoupling Is Associated with Cold Induced Adaptive Thermogenesis
[edit]It's just one measurement (i.e. not a review article, textbook, or other secondary source) but apparently brown fat isn't the only tissue that can uncouple electron transport from ATP synthesis. [1] --Dan Wylie-Sears 2 (talk) 21:11, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
Introduction
[edit]It occurs mostly in warm-blooded animals, but a few species of thermogenic plants exist ... delivers a completely false impression to the reader. Poikilotherms generate heat when exercising muscles - the same manner like homeotherms do. (BTW: the colloquial term warm-blooded is obsolete and no longer used in science).

Plants
[edit]Could more examples from plants be added? And could this perhaps be added in a table format? We all mostly know that animals use this but that plants can do so is less well known (it's actually an exam question too here at a university in central europe, which is also why I looked at wikipedia first) 2A02:8388:1603:CB00:3AD5:47FF:FE18:CC7F (talk) 22:45, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
Technical tag on non-shivering section
[edit]It's the longest section of the article, and the most technical. Perhaps some of it could be explained in a way that allows a non-biologist to understand it better, even if they've not read the other wikilinked articles. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 01:50, 8 December 2018 (UTC)
