* consists of water, salt, and other chemicals produced and excreted from the body.
* consists primarily of water and some electrolytes, specifically sodium and chloride ions
  - with small quantities of minerals like sodium
* contains far more water than electrolytes, so replacing water is most important
  - which many sports drinks contain
  - mainly water
  - salts that can change colors and damage fabrics, especially silk
  - waste products
  - water and salts
  - water, sodium, chloride, magnesium and other minerals
* contributes to body odor when it is metabolized by beneficial bacteria on the skin.
* cools the body and prevents internal heat from getting too high
  - by evaporation, which removes heat from the body surface
* cools the body quickly during cold weather and wind evaporates it faster
  - weather running
* evaporates off of the skin to cool the body down.
* good indicator of exercise intensity.
* helps mosquitoes choose their victims.
* hypotonic solution of sodium chloride.
* includes both respiratory and skin loss.
* intensifies the odors to annoying or even asthma-inducing levels.
* is also a common source of pheromones
  - capable of drips
* is composed mainly of water, with a small amount of sodium
  - of salt, water and a few body wastes
  - comprised mainly of water and sodium and chloride ions
  - condensation
  - critical so that evaporation cools the horse
  - hard on leather
  - located in beds
* is made of salt and water
  - up mostly of water but also contains minerals, urea, lactic acid, ammonia and sugar
* is mostly water , but it also contains some salts
  - with small amounts of salts and amino acids
  - only a perfume when fresh, free-flowing
  - produced and released in warm conditions
* is produced in apocrine sweat glands in the same way
  - the sweat glands
  - to cool the skin down
* is released from sweat glands beneath the skin, and as it evaporates, the skin is cooled
  - through pores in the skin
  - rich in electrolytes
  - saline solutions
  - salty and found on tools and oars
  - secretion
  - simply the body s cooling system, much like a home or car air-conditioning system
  - singles
* is the catalyst
  - cologne of accomplishment
  - lubricant of success

  - wicked and evaporates away from the skin
* keeps our bodies from over-heating.
* literally becomes the water of life.
* migrates to the outside of the fabric, which keeps the inside of the shirt dry.
* mixture of water, sodium, and potassium.
* needs energy to turn from a liquid into a gas and evaporate.
* occur when the fever is breaking.
* problem because it becomes ice in a soldier's gloves and socks.
* produced from the rest of the body is made by different glands - called eccrine glands.
* produces lactic acid, which at close range smells like fresh-baked bread to a hungry mosquito.
* safeguard against some kinds of bacteria, and carelessness.
* spontaneously drips from an individual's hands when hyperhidrosis is severe.
* usually generates bacteria.
* washes microorganisms from the pores and skin surface.
+ Sweat, How sweat is made: Integumentary system
  * Sweat is produced in apocrine sweat glands in the same way. However, the sweat from apocrine glands also contains proteins and fatty acids, which make it thicker and give it a milkier or yellowish color. This is why underarm stains in clothing appear yellowish. Sweat itself has no odor, but when bacteria on the skin and hair metabolize the proteins and fatty acids, they produce an unpleasant odor. This is why deodorants and anti-perspirants are applied to the underarms instead of the whole body.
+ Thermoregulation, Endotherms, Humans: Physiology :: Zoology
  * The human body has automatic responses to help regulate temperature. This increases blood flow to the surface of the skin where its heat can more easily radiate away. This process is called vasodilation. Sweat glands also produce greater amounts of sweat. This liquid is secreted onto the surface of the skin. Sweat needs energy to turn from a liquid into a gas and evaporate. This energy is called the latent heat of vaporisation. The body supplies this heat and so it cools down as the sweat evaporates.
  * Sweat' is a liquid that is made by the skin when the body is hot. Sweat is made in sweat glands under the surface of the skin, and it comes out of tiny holes in the skin called pores. Sweat is mostly water, but it also contains some salts.
