Answer:

Herd immunity protects those individuals who are not immune to the disease because the number of susceptible individuals is reduced greatly.

Explanation:

The immunity provided by the major population which is immune to a particular contagious disease to some of the individuals of population which is not immune to the disease is called herd immunity.  

Herd immunity is achieved when a large percentage of the population is vaccinated for that infectious disease for example herd immunity for measles requires 92-95% of the population to be vaccinated.  

In this case, the disease is not able to cross the barrier of the immune population and so do not able to infect susceptible individuals.

satela [25.4K]

An advantage of using sports drinks for fluid replacement during exercise is that:

c. they have a pleasant taste which encourages consumption.

Explanation:

  • If you are doing moderate exercise in a very hot environment, you may also lose electrolytes that can't be replaced by drinking water alone.
  • Sports drinks can help replenish electrolytes lost during exercise, and because they contain sugar, they can also give you a boost of energy to help you get through a workout
  • The best bet for rehydration is to consume a low-cal beverage that contains electrolytes such as sodium and potassium.
  • Good choices include sports drinks (go low-cal if your workout), try coconut water, or water with a slice of fruit. The refreshing hint of flavor may drive you to drink more
  • During exercise, the main way the body maintains optimal body temperature is by sweating. Heat is removed from the body when beads of sweat on the skin evaporate, resulting in a loss of body fluid.
