Solution

  • The rate of perspiration will be higher during the summer season.
  • So more sweat will be released by our body.
  • The ability to absorb the sweat formed is more for cotton materials than the synthetic ones.
  • The sweat absorbed by the cotton clothes is exposed to the sun and it will get evaporated.
  • The evaporation of sweat produces a cooling effect.
  • Moreover cotton clothes are widely preferred as they are biodegradable.
