Which effect occurs when a mammal experiences prolonged exposure to high temperatures leading to cutaneous vasodilation?

💡 Explanation

When exposed to heat, mammals undergo cutaneous vasodilation, which is the widening of peripheral blood vessels, increasing heat dissipation via convection. Therefore, decreased core body temperature results, rather than increased metabolism, enhanced isulation or suppressed shivering as they are involved in heat genereation or retension.
