 * because it is our interior coolant and keeps us cool and our temperature from rising above the normal degree. If we didn't have this then we would overheat (2) The human body can tolerate cooling. How much? Give examples.
 * 20 or more degrees below normal such as recovering from long periods of hypothermia (3) The human body can not tolerate over heating. How much? Give examples.
 * the brain malfunctions with a six or seven degree fever and an internal temperature of 110 such as miserable summer weather. (4) Why do we think humans evolved sweat glands? Give examples.
 * we evolved sweat glands because if not the only way we would have been able to keep cool is if we had thick apelike hair like our ancestors (5) Describe some of the variation in the amount of sweat glands. Give examples.
 * some people have fewer than 2 million sweat glands others have four million
 * heavy sweaters have glands five times average size (6) What happens during menopause with respect to sweat? Give examples.
 * the female thermostate becomes "trigger-happy" and imagines excess heat that isn't there and generates sweat that isn't needed (7) What happens as we age? Why is that dangeous? Give examples.
 * when we age we starts to sweat less
 * this is dangerous because we can become seriously overheated and causes a high risk of stroke (8) Is clothing good or bad when it comes to sweat? Why? Give examples.
 * less clothing is not always better because the people who have on fewer clothing is absorbing more heat and causing them to sweat more
 * but when the body is protected with clothing it sweats less (9) Describe what happens during heat acclimation. Give examples.
 * when the body adapts to the hot surrounding and they sweat more but they don't lose as much salt and the outer and inner temperatures drop
 * reflects bigger sweat glands (10) Who is "Adam"? Why is he being used for scientific experimentation?
 * Adam is a mannequin who sweats and complains like a human being
 * is used to reduce car fuel consumption by looking at the ways to limit the use of the air condition. Looking at how Adam sweats can show them what type of clothing is needed in order to cool the body. || [[image:http://s.wikispaces.com/i/bTLin.gif width="8" height="8"]] || [[image:http://s.wikispaces.com/s/rte/images/bold.gif width="22" height="23" caption="Bold"]] || [[image:http://s.wikispaces.com/s/rte/images/italic.gif width="22" height="23" caption="Italic"]] || [[image:http://s.wikispaces.com/s/rte/images/underline.gif width="22" height="23" caption="Underline"]] || **Heading 1****Heading 2****Heading 3**NormalCode || [[image:http://s.wikispaces.com/s/rte/images/blackdot.gif width="1" height="20"]] || [[image:http://s.w]] ||
