    Answer: Option C.

    Explanation:

    Entropy is defined as a thermodynamic quantity which represents the thermal energy that is not able to convert into mechanical work.

    During perspiration, entropy of body decreases due to evaporation of water which releases energy from our body and allows cooling effect while entropy of water increases as liquid molecules changes to vapor form that occupy more larger space in the environment.

    Hence, the correct option is C.
