What is sweat made up of?
Sweat is water. But it is not all water. It contains urea and sometimes lactates.

However, it also depends on how much of these you have in your body. If you have a high amount of these things in your body, more will escape in the sweat.
Why evaporation of sweat slows down when the relative humidity is high?
Sweating, by itself, does nothing to cool the body, unless the water is removed by evaporation -- and high relative humidity retards evaporation. This explains why it feels so much hotter in high humidity. When relative humidity reaches a high enough level, the body's natural cooling system simply can't work. Sweat evaporates very slowly, if at all, and the body heats up. In extreme cases, people begin to suffer from heat cramps or heat stroke, which is basically organ failure as the body begins to cook itself.
How do humans get rid of heat during exercise?
Your body uses its sweat glands to perspire sending liquid over your skin to cool you down during exercise, though the sweat may feel warm to you this is because you body has already heated the sweat up by the time you see or feel it as it builds up, you begin to drip. All sweat glands are to tiny to see, its not untill a collection of tiny liquid particles gather together they become dense enough to start rolling down the body gathering heat from your skin. So remember sweat is your friend and you need water to replenish what you loose.
