25. Temperature and wind combine too cause
heat loss. Hypothermia occurs when the
a body temperature falls more than 4 °F
below
normal.
Death
can
occur if
hypothermia persists for over 3 hours.
According to the chart, in which of the
following temperature and wind combina-
tions would the body temperature be the
lowest and a person most at risk for
developing hypothermia?
