Solution

The correct option is A True
  • We sweat more on a humid day.
  • The amount of water vapour will be more on the surrounding air on a humid day.
  • The humid air cannot hold any more water content.
  • It is difficult for more water to evaporate on a humid day.
  • On a dry day, the sweat easily evaporates and as a result, we feel cool.
  • But on a humid day due to less evaporation, our body remains hot.
  • So we sweat more in humid conditions.

Thus, the given statement is true.
