physiological acclimatization

Physiological acclimatization refers to the body's natural adjustments to environmental changes over time, such as altitude, temperature, or humidity. These changes help maintain normal bodily functions despite different conditions. For example, when someone moves to high altitudes, their body gradually produces more red blood cells to carry oxygen more efficiently. Similarly, in hot weather, sweat production increases to cool the body. These adaptations are reversible and can occur over days or weeks, allowing individuals to function effectively in new environments without experiencing severe discomfort or health issues.
