Answer:

sweat and vasodilation

Explanation:

Hyperthermia is when the body is too hot. (Not to be confused with hypothermia, when the body in too cold).

When we sweat, we are releasing moisture, like little bits of water, onto our skin. The water uses up heat energy from the body to evaporate. Because the body loses heat energy, it cools.

Vasodilation is when blood vessels widen. When this happens, the blood vessels are closer to the surface of the skin, allowing heat to escape through and exit the body.

Shivering and vasoconstriction would help to keep a person warm. Shivering makes the muscles on the body move, which increases heat. (Think of exercise, but on a small scale).

Vasoconstriction keeps blood vessels away from the surface of the skin.

When is the BEST time to be tested for HIV? A. immediately after possible exposure B. two to three weeks after possible exposure
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Hey there!

There is a window period between being exposed to HIV and getting accurate results as to whether or not you have actually been infected. Many HIV tests can detect an infection two to three weeks after initial exposure. If someone tests negative on many HIV tests after two weeks since the possible exposure, they're likely HIV-negative, but should still get tested after a certain amount of additional time since everyone can react to the infection differently. 

Your answer will be your second option. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)

Fatty tissue holds the kidneys in place. Extremely rapid weight loss may cause this tissue to shrink so that the kidneys slip fr
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The correct answer is renal ptosis or nephroptosis.

Explanation:

Nephroptosis or renal ptosis or floating kidney is the rare condition of kidney descending more than two vertebral or more than 5 cm. Fatty tissue holds the kidneys in their place. Weight loss can result in the loss of such tissue and the displacement or slippage of the kidney.

This condition can cause many severe symptoms such as extreme flank pain and block urine flow. The kidney drop to the pelvic region is known as nephroptosis.

Thus, the correct answer is renal ptosis or nephroptosis.
