Question 1 of 27070

Which of the following conditions is a symptom of heat stroke?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between heat exhaustion and heat stroke • Typical skin condition (hot/cold, wet/dry) for heat stroke • How body temperature changes in serious heat emergencies

💭 Think About

• For true heat stroke, what usually happens to the person’s ability to sweat? Do they tend to be wet or dry? • If body temperature is very high, would you expect the skin to feel cold or hot? Which answer choice matches that combination? • Which choice looks more like hypothermia (cold exposure) rather than a heat emergency?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options show high body temperature versus low body temperature • Decide which skin description best matches failure of the body’s cooling system (no effective sweating) • Eliminate any option that sounds more like cold exposure/hypothermia than a hot environment problem
