Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -When the body core temperature rises above the critical level of 37 C (98.6 F), there is an increase in the rate of heat loss by sweating. Shivering and chemical thermogenesis are strongly inhibited.
Detailed explanation-2: -The average normal body temperature is generally accepted as 98.6°F (37°C). Some studies have shown that the “normal” body temperature can have a wide range, from 97°F (36.1°C) to 99°F (37.2°C). A temperature over 100.4°F (38°C) most often means you have a fever caused by an infection or illness.
