When the body temperature rises, the body activates its cooling mechanisms, including sweating and vasodilation. This causes the hair follicles to relax, leading to hair lying flatter against the skin. Additionally, the moisture from sweat can weigh down the hair, further contributing to its flat appearance. This process helps to enhance heat loss and maintain a stable body temperature.

What two structures found in the skin aid in heat loss when the temperature of the body is high?

The two structures that are found in the body during heat loss are the hairs on our skin and the glands. The hairs trap more warmth that enters the skin and the glands of our body stash the sweat into the surface to reduce the warm feeling, and by this, it cools our body.

How does your body control and regulate its temperature?

The body regulates its temperature through a process called thermoregulation, which involves the hypothalamus in the brain. When the body temperature rises, mechanisms like sweating and vasodilation help cool it down. Conversely, when the body temperature drops, shivering and vasoconstriction can help to generate heat and maintain a stable internal temperature.
