Body temperature falls. Blood vessels constrict so that heat is conserved. Sweat glands do not secrete fluid. Shivering (involuntary contraction of muscles) generates heat, which warms the body. Heat is retained. Normal body temperature Body temperature rises. Blood vessels dilate, resulting in heat loss to the environment. Sweat glands secrete fluid. As the fluid evaporates, heat is lost from the body. Heat is lost to the environment.
