Sweating
We sweat because our body is too hot (being too hot disrupts homeostasis) sweating cools us off.

Homeostasis is the property of an open system, especially living organisms, to regulate its internal environment to maintain a stable, constant condition, by means of multiple dynamic equilibrium adjustments, controlled by interrelated regulation mechanisms. The term was coined in 1932 by Walter Bradford Cannon from the Greek homoios (same, like, resembling) and stasis (to stand, posture).

Dukefenton is right. Both A and C are correct although if I had to choose one I would say A is more correct.

The other may be a help in particular circumstances, but their lack does not endanger your life....
