Clothes do not protect us from _______.
A. Heat
B. Cold
C. Blood pressure
D. Dust and germs

Explanation

Solution

Clothes provide us heat when the outside temperature is less than the usual room temperature. When the outside temperature is high enough, the clothes provide safety from skin burns. In our day to day lives, we come across many microorganisms and particles which can directly affect our skin. The clothes provide us security from such harmful particles.

Complete answer:
Clothes are made up of so many types of materials. For different seasons, we wear different types of clothes such that our body can easily accommodate the outside conditions and it does not affect our body or health conditions.
Suppose the outside temperature is much lower than the normal room temperature. In that case, we try to wear woolen clothes as they have trapped warm air inside them which keeps the body warm.
If the outside temperature is pretty much higher than the ordinary room temperature, we try to wear cotton clothes that would easily soak up the sweat and would not stick to the body causing any type of allergy or itching sensations.
Due to day by day increasing pollution and increase of various microorganisms that can cause harmful effects to our body, we are more prone to infections and diseases. But due to the clothing that we put on, we are prevented from coming into direct contact with those dust and germs.

So, the correct answer is Option C.

Note:
We cannot modulate the blood pressure of the body by simply modulating the clothes that we wear. If this would have been so then there would have been separate clothes for hypertension patients and separate clothes for hypotension patients. But this is not so.
