Answer: lower immunity

Explanation:

The state in which the body loses the fluid quantity compared to the retained amount is called dehydration. The water and the other fluids are less than the required amount and can cause nausea and loss of stamina.

Low immunity will not be observed in a severely dehydrated person.

The dehydration can be explained as:

  • Loss of body fluid can be seen by symptoms like dry skin, dizziness, less urination and sweating, dry mouth etc. The urine also becomes dark in colour as well as the eyes and the cheeks become hollow and sunken.
  • A severely dehydrated person will have low blood plasma levels and high blood viscosity and hematocrit levels.

Therefore, option B. lower immunity will not be observed in severely dehydrated persons.
