Answer 2

the body actually gains heat from the environment. In this case, evaporation, or the conversion of a liquid (sweat) to a gas, becomes the body's only legitimate defense against overheating. Millions of sweat glands on the surface of the skin secrete large amounts of liquid, which when evaporated, help to cool the skin, which in turn cools the blood and ultimately the body. Serious problems can arise because high air temperatures stimulate excessively large amounts of sweat production, which if not replaced, can lead to a dehydrated state. Dehydration leads to higher body temperature. Severely dehydrated individuals can suffer circulatory collapse and death can occur. I Hope this help you !!!!

Another thing is that your blood vessels dilate when you're cold to get more hot blood to the area, and contract when you're hot. The majority of the heat you produce comes from your muscles. Even when you're sitting still, many muscle fibers are contracting to hold your posture.
