Explanation:

When a person is hot, the body's first response is to release sweat through the pores. This is a physical process. From an exothermic perspective, heat is transferred from the body to the sweat (your body is giving off heat). From an endothermic perspective, water molecules in the sweat absorb heat from the surroundings (the sweat evaporates). As a result of these processes, the body cools down.

Answer:

1. Sweat comes out of your pores.

3/4 (exothermic). Your body is giving off heat.
3/4 (endothermic). The sweat evaporates.

1. Your body cools down.
