Functions of WaterFunctions of Water Body temperature regulationBody temperature regulation
– Water absorbs excess heatWater absorbs excess heat– Body secretes fluid via perspirationBody secretes fluid via perspiration– Skin is cooled as perspiration evaporates Skin is cooled as perspiration evaporates – Humidity (bad) & fans (good) ~ evaporationHumidity (bad) & fans (good) ~ evaporation
