Question

Why the following people are at risk of dehydration Sara who ran a marathon and Jeff who has been vomiting

Answer 1

Hi!

The reason both of these people are at risk of dehydration is that they both have lost a lot of bodily fluid Sara through swearing and use of energy and Jeff through expelling liquids in the stomach which is what makes up a part of vomit.

Answer 2

Hey there!

When a person runs a marathon, it’s hard to stay hydrated. They usually do not drink more water than they lose through sweat. When a person vomits, they are not getting any water to their body. This means that they will quickly become dehydrated.

I hope this helps!
