What happens to your body when it gets too hot?
Your brain recieves signals from your skin receptors that tells your brain that your temperature is too hot. You produce sweat from your sweat glands, which cools your body down. The hairs on your arms lie flat against your skin so that no hot air can be trapped there. Your capillaries that are near the surface of your skin dilate/get widen so that more blood can get to the surface and so that more heat can be lost.
