Question

multiple choice question
skin wetting techniques, such as sponging the head and torso with cold water or using a water spray have been shown:
decrease core temperature
improve cardiovascular responses to exercise
to decrease sweat loss

Explanation:

Skin wetting with cold - water techniques helps in heat transfer from the body to the cold water. This heat transfer leads to a reduction in the body's core temperature. Sponging or spraying with cold water is a common method to cool down the body. It does not directly improve cardiovascular responses to exercise or decrease sweat loss. Sweat loss is a body's natural cooling mechanism and these techniques do not have an impact on reducing it in the way described.

Answer:

A. decrease core temperature
