Sweating Allows a Person to Lose Heat Through Which Process

Question

Sweating allows a person to lose heat through which process?
A)conduction
B)convection
C)radiation
D)evaporation
E)acclimatization

Accepted Answer

Sweat is primarily composed of water, which absorbs heat from the body when it evaporates. This process is known as evaporation, and it allows the body to lose heat and cool down. Conduction and convection involve the transfer of heat through physical contact or motion of fluids, while radiation involves the emission of heat through energy waves. Acclimatization refers to the process by which the body adjusts to a new environment over time, including changes in temperature and humidity.
