Solution

The correct option is A
Vasodilation

In a person who is engaged in strenuous physical work, the body starts to produce heat excessively. This, in turn, increases the blood supply to the skin and leads to dilation of the blood vessels (vasodilation). This results in greater loss of heat by radiation or vaporisation of sweat.
