Answer:

Between 5-8% of body water loss

Explanation:

Mild dehydration, naturally occurs from 3%, at this point most people can manage and cope with it, and its relatively easy to recover from. From 5% decrease, fatigue and dizziness creeps in, which are good factors for heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Finally, any loss above 10% is regarded as sever, exceeding 15% can lead to death.

Describe the body's 3 immune systems (Active, Passive, Natural) and how each helps prevent diseases and infections
kupik [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Active - the process of exposing the body to an antigen. Exposing the body will generate an adaptive response that takes a few days or weeks to develop and can be life long lasting.

Passive - it is provided when we are given antibodies to disease. Instead of producing the antibodies with the immune system, they are given. Like a newborn baby acquires immunity from the placenta.

Natural - it works to fight off pathogens before they begin an active infection. Sometimes it is not enough to stop the pathogen or the pathogen exploits the immune response and gets to the cells.
