How is heat energy lost through the body?
Heat energy in the human body is transferred to the ambient environment. To accelerate this transfer evaporation of moisture, sweat, assists. Generally the heat transfer is by radiation, thermal diffusion and conduction.
What is the process of water releasing heat called?
Evaporation. A body of water is cooled as a portion of it is converted to vapor by evaporation.
What is insensible heat?
Also Latent Heat Loss. The heat that is lost through the continuous, unnoticed water loss that occurs with vaporization accounting for 10% of basal heat production. Evaporation accounts for the greatest heat loss when body head increases.. Does not result in temperature increase of surrounding air.
Describe how your bodies use evaporation to cool themselves?
your sweat evaporates, your body heat flies away with it...
Why is evaporation of water from your skin a cooling process?
In order for sweat or water to evaporate from your skin it requires heat; therefore, when it evaporates it takes some of your body heat with it.

How does evaporation of moisture from your skin help you comfortable on a hot day?
For the evaporation,heat is absorbed from body.So heat is lost from body.So we feel comfortable.
How evaporation exhibit the cooling effect?
Evaporation needs heat energy. During the process of evaporation heat is absorbed by the other body thereby cooling it
What is the heat of the heavenly body results in evaporation?
Sun
During exercise which avenue of heat loss does the body rely upon most?
Evaporation
How does water make you cooler?
when we sweat , water use the body heat for vaporisation as water to vapour formation is a endothermic reaction. so the heat required for this reaction in case of sweat evaporation is body heat. as our body lose heat, our body becomes cool.
What does the body depend upon when cooling itself in a hot environment?
The latent heat of evaporation of water - the evaporation of sweat.
What is the process of water releasing heat called?
Evaporation. A body of water is cooled as a portion of it is converted to vapor by evaporation.
What are the 5 ways heat is exchanged with the body?
metabolic heat production (heat gain) radiated convection conduction evaporation

How your body is cooled when you perspired?
When your body perspires, it is coating your body with sweat. When it is really hot out, the sweat evaporates, cooling your body by removing the sweat.
