Question

during a strenuous soccer game, a student is sweating a lot.
which option would help her maintain her water balance?
increasing breathing and heart rate
refraining from drinking any water
wiping off perspiration with a towel
drinking more water or other fluids

Explanation:

Water balance requires replacing water lost via sweating. Increasing breathing/heart rate does not replenish water; avoiding water worsens imbalance; wiping sweat only removes surface moisture without restoring body water. Drinking fluids replaces lost water to maintain balance.

Answer:

drinking more water or other fluids
