When threatened with above normal temperatures, the body will try to dissipate excess heat by varying the rate and depth of blood circulation, by losing water through the skin and sweat glands, and, as a last resort, by panting. When weather conditions lead to an air temperature above 32°C and the relative humidity is high, the body does ev...")
