Which of the following is NOT a physiological response to preserve heat in the water?

Understand the Problem

The question is asking which option does NOT represent a physiological response aimed at preserving body heat when in water. It's focused on identifying the incorrect response among the options given.

More Information

Contraction of blood vessels (vasoconstriction) and high blood pressure are common responses to conserve body heat in cold environments. Slow heart rate, or bradycardia, doesn't contribute to preserving heat.

Tips

A common mistake is assuming that all physiological changes in cold water are aimed at heat conservation. It's important to differentiate those that directly influence heat retention.
