The document discusses heat reactions of the human body including heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Heat exhaustion occurs when the body cannot tolerate vigorous exercise or strenuous work in excessive heat, and is characterized by clammy skin, fatigue, nausea, dizziness, and profuse sweating. Heat stroke occurs when the body's temperature regulation system fails and body temperature rises rapidly, and is characterized by high temperature, rapid pulse, hot dry skin, and blocked sweating mechanism. First aid treatment for heat exhaustion involves lying down, raising feet, applying cool wet cloths, and sips of salt water. For heat stroke, first aid aims to quickly cool down the body by placing the victim in cold water or sponging with
