Why does my MacBook Pro spike up in temperature every few minutes?

Since I started using my MacBook Pro, when I'm watching YouTube videos sometimes the fans ramp up and the MacBook heats up for no reason. I don't open any other applications while watching something so this shouldn't be a problem caused by apps running in the background. This also happens to me while I'm writing a document on Google Docs or making a presentation on Google slides. I always use my MacBook while on charge not on battery. If there is any way I could increase performance or maybe solve the issue with the temperature suddenly rising and the fans ramping up for no reason please tell how!

Keep your Mac notebook within acceptable operating temperatures

No harm in being connected to the mains 100% of the time, it will make your battery last longer, your Mac is in no danger of overcharging or overheating from this.

Helps tremendously to keep the notebook on a flat hard surface, not the bed, not your lap, not a pillow—not so good.

If you you think you have an issue—Try resetting the SMC http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
