When a person is overheated, the body tries to cool down by redirecting blood flow to the skin's surface for heat dissipation. This causes the skin to appear flushed or red as more blood rises to the surface. The skin may also feel hot to the touch due to the increased blood flow and heat exchange.

When a person has a fever red blood cells than normal how will his or her color look?
A person with a fever may appear flushed or have a reddish skin color due to increased blood flow near the surface of the skin in an attempt to release heat. The actual color of their red blood cells does not affect the skin color that is visible to the naked eye.
Can people turn black using only with the sun?
No, people cannot change their skin color to black solely by exposure to the sun. Skin color is determined by genetics and the amount of melanin, a pigment found in the skin. The sun can darken a person's existing melanin, resulting in a tan, but it cannot permanently alter a person's genetic makeup or produce a permanent change in skin color.
When you stain your skin does the stain become part of you?
No, the stain does not become a physical part of your body. Staining your skin simply means that the dye or colorants have been absorbed into the top layer of your skin, but it will eventually fade away as your skin naturally sheds and regenerates.
What would be least likely to happen as a result of a mutation in a person's skin cells?
A mutation in a person's skin cells would be least likely to impact their ability to produce insulin as insulin is primarily produced by pancreatic cells. Skin cells are not directly involved in insulin production or regulation.
Will people become black if exposed to sunlight?
No, exposure to sunlight does not change a person's skin color to black. Sunlight can stimulate the production of melanin, the pigment that gives skin its color, resulting in a tan, but it does not permanently change someone's skin color.

A person who is overheated will have a red flushed appearance a person who is chilled will be pale with blue finger tips explain this appearances in terms of the body's control of one of the methods?
hot = vasodilation (the veins are dilated) when a person's body temperature is up, the reason they become flushed and have the reddish tint to the skin is b/c the veins are dilated and blood is close to the skin surface. this is the body's way of attempting to cool down. cold = vasoconstriction (the veins are constricted) a person looks pallored (pale) and cyanotic (bluish) when their temp is down b/c the veins are constricted and blood is not close to the skin surface. this is the body's attempt to conserve heat. HOUNDDAWG adds: Presumably most of the answer applies only to light skinned people such as Caucasians. Just as Crayola Crayons used to have one color labeled "flesh" the above answer is a bit insensitive to the fact that most of the people of the world do not have skin the color of that now wisely discontinued crayon, and most do not turn red or blueish with extreme body temperatures. But, anyone who does not is indeed "a person" as used in the above question. Fingernails may still be blue if a darker skinned person is cyanotic or cold, but skin temperature to the touch will also answer the question for responding medical personnel, and shallow or labored breathing, pulse and other vitals will reliably aid in assessing a person's condition if they're not "a person" in some limited context such as the question posed.
How did scarlatina get its name?
It gets its name from the fact that the patient's skin, especially on the cheeks, is flushed
Why does a person's skin get red when they're hot?
The body has a core temperature of about 98.6F for most people. If you are in a hot environment, or have just taken a nice hot shower/bath, your core body temp is going to be affected. To get rid of the heat, the superficial blood vessels, just under your skin, dilate to release the heat to the skin, sometimes in the form of perspiration with a little help from the eccrine (sweat) glands. When those blood vessels dilate so close to the surface of the skin, it causes the skin to become red, flushed or florrid.
