Answer:

Heat by constricting the blood vessels in the skin

Explanation:

The body responds to cold by constricting the blood vessels in the skin in order to reduce heat loss. However in the event where the body is overheating, the opposite occurs.

When the body is getting too hot, the blood vessels in the skin actually dilate. This means that the blood vessels get bigger, exposing the blood to colder temperatures to cool the body down (this may be why the skin may seem red after exercising or while it is very hot). Other mechanisms such as sweating also help cool down the body. When sweat is on the skin, evaporation occurs and cools down the sweat droplet, making sure the skin in contact with that droplet also cools down.

Why do you think the humanistic approach is important
Fofino [41]

Answer:

As it developed, humanistic psychology focused on each individual's potential and stressed the importance of growth and self-actualization. The fundamental belief of humanistic psychology is that people are innately good and that mental and social problems result from deviations from this natural tendency.
