Because I was thinking... If you're in like, hot water, your body would be hot. And when your body is hot, it sweats to allow the moisture to catch like, coolness... But if the surface of your skin is allready wet because you're allready in water (Thats hot none-the-less) would you still sweat?

You can sweat in water, but you wouldn't know it because you're already wet.

You will still sweat regardless of being in water. If the water is hot your body will sweat more as it tries to lose heat. If the water is cold it doesn't have to sweat as much. The fact that you are in water only makes a difference depending on how well it heats or cools the skin.

If you ever sat in a hot tub you would realize that your body was sweating by feeling sweat pouring down your face. The same thing is happening to all the rest of your body surface. It just is not as visible on the wet parts.

Yes but you wouldn't be able to tell. Unless your face was sweaty too and had not been underwater.

you WOULD sweat... But because the water washes away the perspiration you can't tell that you are perspiring..

Yes, but it would mix with the waqter, so you couldn't tell.
