Having a higher than normal body temperature can destroy many cells in the body. However, it can also strengthen the immune cells in the body to fight off whatever is causing the high temperature.

When cells are exposed to excessive heat, the heat disrupts the bonds within the cell walls, making them weak and structurally unsound.

It will have affect over whatever the cell is in, and most likely, on humans, that is fever.

What happens when water molecules when heat is added to water molecules?

When heat is added to the water, the molecules move faster. When the water reaches the boiling point (100 Degree Celsius), the water molecules at the surface of the water would break apart with the other molecules and escape (evaporate). When they evaporate, the water molecules changes state and becomes water vapour.


What happens to water molecules as ice melts?

the molecules absorb heat and start moving rapidly changing from solid to liquid


What happens to molecules from which heat is removed?

The molecules move slower when heat is removed.


What happens to the particles of water when you remove heat from the water?

The molecules of water slow down and eventually stop when you hit absolute zero.


What happens when molecules are removed from heat?

the molecules will decrease in motion


What happens to a rubber band if exposed to heat?

When a rubber band is exposed to heat it contracts heat, meaning that sucks up all the heat and becomes smaller.


Why do water molecules retain heat energy?

Water molecules retain energy due to heat transfer.


When water evaporates what happens to the molecules?

When the heat is added to water, the atoms in the water particle get enough energy, they end up being so poweful, they are able to pull away from other atoms and bounce around. It's sort of like heating water, the water is getting boiled and the water turns to steam. When energy/heat is taken away from the gas form, the steam turns back into a water form. To make it simple, The molecules get energy from heat.


What happens when fast moving molecules touch other molecules?

Heat transfer


How does the bonding work between water molecules?

heat transfers to the water molecules


What happens when you heat water vapor?

When you heat water, like anything else, its temperature or energy increases. The molecules will have more and more motion, i.e. more and more energy - this is the definition of temperature. At the boiling point of water, which varies depending on pressure, if you continue to heat it the molecules will start to disassociate and they will become gaseous.


What happens to the water molecules as they start to heat up?

Heating water molecules causes them to move faster and faster. Water when cool is in a way (sticky). When heated the water molecules are moving far too quickly stick together. The heated water molecules become less dense and may stick to air molecules. Floating into and combining with the atmosphere.
