Vedclass · Answer

(D) Acute diarrhoea and vomiting lead to the rapid loss of fluids and essential electrolytes from the body.Sodium $(Na^+)$ and potassium $(K^+)$ are the primary electrolytes lost during these conditions.Sodium is crucial for maintaining extracellular fluid volume and osmotic pressure,while potassium is essential for intracellular function,nerve impulse transmission,and muscle contraction.The loss of these ions can lead to severe dehydration,electrolyte imbalance,and cardiac arrhythmias if not corrected promptly.
