The human core body temperature is normally 37°C no matter what the temperature of the surroundings or the activity level of an individual. To help reduce the body temperature, sweating occurs. Sweat is mostly water with some salt. It is produced by the sweat glands and pours out onto the surface of the skin. How does sweating help to cool and regulate body temperature? The increased salt concentration of the body's cells helps maintain a lower body temperature. B) Water has a high heat of vaporization; the human body can dissipate excess heat by the evaporation of sweat. C) The low specific heat of water allows it to readily evaporate into the atmosphere, quickly cooling your body. D) Water's cohesive properties cause water molecules to stick together requiring the body's thermal energy to evaporate sweat into the air.
