What is the Perspiration fluid loss with having fever?
When you have a fever, the temperature of your entire body is raised. Perspiration(sweating) is your body's natural reaction to heat, because moisture evaporating from your body allows heat to leave.
How severe are heat cramps?
Heat cramps are the least severe of the heat-related illnesses. This heat disorder is often the first signal that the body is having difficulty with increased temperature.
Why do not you feel the heat of cool matters like ice?
Although ice possesses certain amount of heat energy, it is less than that possessed by a person. When a person touches ice, the heat energy from his/her body is transferred to the ice to reach equilibrium (equal amount of heat in the person's body and in the ice). Since heat is not being received that is why it is not felt either. Since heat energy is being given away, a person feels cold.
What is the fastest method of body heat loss?
In high temperatures there are several methods of body heat loss. One is metabolic heat loss, which is where the metabolism of the body produces heat which is increased in higher temperatures, this in turn produces heat loss. There is heat exchange which is where body heat is lost when making contact with a cooler object. Also conductive heat exchange allows the body to lose heat as coming cool, like water or air, move around the person. The body also uses radiant heat exchange which is where the blood is sent to the superficial arteries and veins to let off heat. Finally there is evaporative heat loss which is of course when a person sweats and as that sweat evaporates it takes body heat with it, thus in turn cooling the body down.
How is heat transferred when person holds a pen that is already at body temperature?
It's not.
When heat flows into a system its value is When heat flows out of a system its value is negative?
Heat is energy and cannot be negative, If you are talking about heat flow then if you define outflow to be negative then inflow is positive.

What is human body temprature?

Why does a person with fever feels cold when he is actually hot?
The person with fever feels cold because his body inside is not heated because all the bosy heat is outside his body
Why would a person born with an absence of sweat glands be very susceptible to death by exposure to heat?
Sweat glands are the cooling system for the human body. Excess heat is transferred to the sweat which oozes out of the body and evaporates. For a person born without sweat glands, some kind of artificial cooling system would be necessary to keep that person alive, or bodily heat would build up with nowhere to go, and the person would die. Humans are warm blooded, and internal heat from metabolism would be as much of a danger to such a person that from an external heat source.
