Answer:
(A) - The volume of the blood plasma increases on overhydration and decreaes on dehydration.
(B) - Osmolality of blood increases with the dehydration and decreases with the overhydration.
Explanation:
If the levels of drinking water is increased, then the plasma becomes more dilute and the plasma volume increases because <u>the water will be reabsorbed more and which as a result reduces plasma concentration of the solutes and increases volume of plasma.</u>
Plasma osmolality measures electrolyte-water balance of the body. <u>As mentioned, above on overhydration, the plasma concentration of the solutes decraeses which also decreases osmolality. So, Osmolality of blood increases with the dehydration and decreases with the overhydration. </u>Increased osmolality in blood stimulate the secretion of antidiuretic hormone which results in the increased water reabsorption and therefore, more concentrated urine and hence blood plasma with less concentration.

Answer:
The correct answer choice for the question: The study, or care, of patients with conditions of the heart and circulatory system, would be, D: cardiology.
Explanation:
The name of the medical field that studies and treats patients with conditions that affect their heart and cardiovascular system, is cardiovascular medicine. However, the medical specialists who work on taking care of this major body system are known as cardiologists, and the specialty from internal medicine is known as cardiology. Cardiology is precisely the specialty that focuses only on the heart and cardiovascular system, over any other system.
Infectious diseases are transmitted from person to person by direct or indirect contact. Certain types of viruses, bacteria, parasites, and fungi can all cause infectious disease. Malaria, measles, and respiratory illnesses are examples of infectious diseases.
