Water intoxication results from: A. Dilute body fluids B. Osmosis of water from ICF to ECF C. Decrease in water intake D. Decrease in the osmolarity of interstitial fluids E. Dilute body fluids and a decrease in the osmolarity of interstitial fluids

E.  Dilute body fluids and a decrease in the osmolarity of interstitial fluids

Explanation:

When there is excessive water intake into the body, it can lead to water intoxication. It occurs as result of a combination of dilute body fluids and decrease in the osmolarity of interstitial fluids.

When excess water is taken into the body, the extracellular fliuds become very dilute, this results in a decrease in osmolarity , therefore, water will then move into the intracellular fluid by osmosis in order to establish equilibrium.. This causes the cells to swell, and in the brain, this swelling will result in increase in pressure within the cranium. This increase in pressure leads to the symptoms found in water intoxication such as nausea, confusion, and fainting. If not treated, it can result in death.

From the given options;

A. Dilute body fluids is only a part of the cause

B. Osmosis of water from ICF to ECF does not result in water intoxication because in water intoxication, water moves into the ICF from ECF

C. Decrease in water intake is wrong because it is an increase in water intake that results in water intoxication

D. Decrease in the osmolarity of interstitial fluids is only one part of the cause of water intoxication

E. Dilute body fluids and a decrease in the osmolarity of interstitial fluids is the correct option.

what's the question?

answers are:

lysogenic     viral dna merges with host cell dna

lysogenic     no symptoms

lytic               viral dna takes over

lysogenic     virus does not destroy host cell

lytic               virus destroys host cell

lytic               induces symptoms of viral infection

lysogenic       cell reproduces and spreads provirus
