How is the presence of a thin layer of moisture on your skin help cool you down?
The evaporation of the moisture pulls heat from the surface of your skin. (There is a lot of physics involved, but that's enough for now.) The blood supply is cooled a little by flowing through the cooled down skin. The slightly cooled down blood conducts heat from the rest of your body.
Does evaporation take on or give off energy?
Moisture needs to take in energy to evaporate. That's why your skin feels cooled when it happens to sweat on your skin.
Why do you feel cold when you are wet?
Because when your skin is wet the evaporation of the moisture takes heat away from your skin and makes it feel cold. When you are dry you do not have this evaporation happening so you feel warmer in comparison. Your body produces sweat for this very same reason to help you cool off on a hot day.
What is the function of sebum?
Sebum:provides moisture for the skin and hairprotects the skin from friction.is an oily substance which therefore helps to prevent the evaporation of water.moves dead skin cells from the hair follicle to the surfacebecasue so it can work

Why does sweat cool you on a warm day?
Sweat is moisture on a surface, your skin. turning that moisture into a gas, or evaporating it, takes energy. The place to get that energy is the warm surface of your skin. Therefore, when sweat evaporates from your skin, it takes heat with it and lowers the temperature theron.
What is body trying to do when you are either shivering or sweating?
Shivering warms the body by increasing metabolism, and sweating cools the body by the effects of evaporation of the moisture on the skin.

How do you find out the effect of evaporation on skin?
Evaporation causes cooling . The skin cools when evaporation takes place.
How does massaging face with silkworm cocoon help improve skin?
Silkworm has vitamins that nourish and add moisture to the skin. This can help improve skin texture and cell plumpness.
How does sweat cool the body by removing heat?
Perspiration is moisture on the skin which evaporates. Evaporation sends the atoms of perspiration into the air. It takes energy (heat) to do this, so as the heat leaves the skin, the skin becomes cooler.
