Why is our body warmer than a metal or wooden spoon?

The temperature of a material depends on the average kinetic energy of its particles. This means that the faster the particles in a material are moving, the higher its temperature will be.

Our bodies are made up of cells, which are very small units that are constantly moving. The cells in our body produce heat as they metabolize food and oxygen, which is why our body temperature is higher than that of a metal or wooden spoon. Metal and wood are not living materials and do not produce heat internally, so they are typically cooler than our bodies.

Additionally, the body is able to regulate its temperature through various mechanisms such as sweating or shivering, allowing it to maintain a constant internal temperature regardless of the external environment.
