Question

GIVE REASONS: A) DOCTOR ADVICE TO PUT STRIPS OF WET CLOTH ON THE FOREHEAD OF A PERSON HAVING HIGH FEVER.

Answer 1

To make body temperature normal by cooling the heat with wet cloth

Answer 2

When a person has fever his body temperature becomes more than the normal body temperature. If we put strips of wet cloth on the forehead of a person suffering from high fever, the water evaporates taking heat from the body, creating a cooling effect. Thus, moist strips will lower his body temperature.
