Answer:

During endurance exercise, two problems arise from disturbed fluid–electrolyte balance: dehydration and overhydration.

Step-by-step explanation:

The former involves water and sodium losses in sweat and urine that are incompletely replaced, whereas the latter involves excessive consumption and retention of dilute fluids
