1) Body heat that is lost because heat moves to an area that is colder is referred to as:
conduction. evaporation. convection. radiation.
radiation.
Explanation: Body heat lost because heat moves to an area that is colder without direct contact is referred to as radiation. This process occurs when heat is transferred in the form of infrared rays from a warmer object (the body) to a cooler environment.
Definitions of other options:
- Conduction: Heat transfer through direct contact with another object (e.g., sitting on a cold surface).
- Evaporation: Heat loss when sweat evaporates from the skin.
- Convection: Heat loss through the movement of air or liquid over the skin.
