<u>Excessive drinking of water</u> causes hyponatremia.

Hyponatremia is an elementary medical condition that is caused by drinking excessive water. If the concentration of sodium falls below 136 mEq/L, this results in hyponatremia.

Drinking too much water dilutes the sodium in the human body and this results in a high level of water in the body. When the water level rises, cells become enlarged and swollen.

The swelling cells can have harmful impacts on your health by exerting pressure and damaging cell membranes.

Other common causes include diarrhea, liver disease, renal disease, and heart failure. This condition can be cured by taking an IV sodium fluid to raise the degree of sodium.

What is the action force and the reaction force when someone swims? <br> No link
Arada [10]

Answer:

The action and reaction forces are reciprocal (opposite) on an object. The swimmer pushes against the water (action force), the water pushes back on the swimmer (reaction force) and pushes her forward. The ball puts a force on the wall (action force), and the wall puts a force on the ball (reaction force) so the ball bounces off.
