Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation.
