Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Thirst is a protective mechanism that alerts the individual to the need for fluids; however, thirst lags behind the body's need. A water deficiency that develops slowly may alert the body in time to consume adequate fluids to prevent dehydration, but one that occurs rapidly may not. In the elderly, the confused, and in infants, it is not a reliable guide.
