Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat.

When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
