Answer:
We can write the specific heat as:
C = (dU/dT)
Where C is the specific heat, U is the internal energy and T is the temperature.
This is:
"How much does change the internal energy when the temperature changes".
Having a high specific heat (and positive) means that for every little increase in the temperature we will have a large change in the internal energy.
What does this mean?
Think in the inverse way:
A larger specific heat means that we need a large amount of heat (the heat is energy) to change a little the temperature.
Then this is good, because even when receiving a lot of heat, the body temperature will remain about the same.
