You know when you are acclimated to heat when:
a. you don’t sweat as much as before
b. you start to sweat at intensity lower than usual
c. you start to sweat at intensity higher than usual
d. your sweat it is less salty
e. your sweat it is more salty
f. a and d
g. c and e
h. b and d

Solution

Body heat control mechanisms come into action when the blood’s temperature rises above 98.6°F. When air temperature is as warm as skin temperature, evaporation remains the only effective way to cool the body. During intense exercise in the heat, athletes can sweat off 2 to 6 percent of their bodyweight.

HEAT WITHOUT ACCLIMATION:

High body temperature

High pulse rate

Profuse sweating

Important loss of salt

HEAT WITH ACCLIMATION

Decrease in body temperature

Decrease in pulse rate

Sweating may increase but salt content decreases

So correct answer: D. your sweat it is less salty
