- When the body perspires the moisture then evaporates and takes excess heat with it.
- It leads to them lowering of internal temperature.
- Sweat consists of water and salts.
- The perspiration works on the principles of the First and second laws of thermodynamics.
- Hypothalamus is responsible for sending the signal to the sweat-producing skin glands whenever the temperature of the body increases.
- If the temperature decreases, such glands constrict so that the production of sweat also gets reduced.
- Hypothalamus is also responsible for the dilation of blood vessels.
