Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The body water has an important role as a thermoregulator, regulating the overall body temperature by helping dissipate heat. If the body becomes too hot, water is lost through sweat and the evaporation of this sweat from the skin surface removes heat from the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Water has a relatively high specific heat, or heat capacity, meaning it can absorb a lot of heat before its temperature rises. This trait helps it to stabilize temperature in its surroundings. The water in every cell of the human body act as a buffer against sudden temperature changes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Our internal body temperature is regulated by a part of our brain called the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus checks our current temperature and compares it with the normal temperature of about 37°C. If our temperature is too low, the hypothalamus makes sure that the body generates and maintains heat.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer: Explanation: The water we drink helps in the production of sweat which cools down the body temperature by evaporation.
