Summary Introduction
To review:
The following:
Effects of dehydration on blood and urine volume
Cause and effect mechanism involved.
Introduction:
Thirst is a sign of dehydration . Dehydration occurs when the rate of intake of water in the body is lower than the rate of excretion . Dehydration stimulates an individual to drink more water in order to establish water or hydration balance in the body.
