Which outcome occurs when a seal suddenly enters warm water?

💡 Explanation

Peripheral vasodilation causes heat loss because blood vessels near the skin surface dilate, therefore heat dissipates into the warmer water, rather than being conserved as in cold conditions when vasoconstriction dominates.
