Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Blood vessels supplying blood to the skin can swell or dilate-vasodilation. This causes more heat to be carried by the blood to the skin, where it can be lost to the air. Blood vessels can shrink down again-vasoconstriction. This reduces heat loss through the skin once the body’s temperature has returned to normal.
