Detailed explanation-1: -Loss of over 10% of total body water can cause physical and mental deterioration, accompanied by severe thirst. Death occurs at a loss of between 15-25% of the body water. Mild dehydration is characterized by thirst and general discomfort and is usually resolved with oral rehydration.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dehydration is caused by not drinking enough fluid or by losing more fluid than you take in. Fluid is lost through sweat, tears, vomiting, urine or diarrhoea. The severity of dehydration can depend on a number of factors, such as climate, level of physical activity and diet.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hypertonic dehydration, also known as hypernatremia, refers to an imbalance of water and sodium in the body characterized by relatively increased levels of sodium. Generally, when water is excreted from the body, electrolyte (e.g., sodium) concentrations in the blood increase.
