Answer:

The correct answer is option 4. Hyponatremia due to water intoxication

Explanation:

Drinking an excessive amount of liquid or water in a short period of time can be dangerous for the individual. Excess amount of water in the body can result in a drop in salt or sodium in the blood. That's a condition called hyponatremia call which can be very serious and can be fatal too.

The drinking extreme level of water which can be lethal to an individual is called water toxication.

Thus, the correct answer is option 4. Hyponatremia due to water intoxication.
