Where from comes the water for sweat?
Sweat primarily comes from the body's fluids, specifically the interstitial fluid, which is the liquid that surrounds cells. When the body heats up, the hypothalamus signals sweat glands to release this fluid onto the skin's surface. As the sweat evaporates, it helps cool the body down. The water in sweat is largely derived from the bloodstream, which replenishes the lost fluids through hydration.

How does sweating regulate body temperature?
