Our body is formed of millions of cells. Now, you can imagine how minute the cells are.We cannot see unicellular bacteria or our cheek cell without the help of microscope.We can see a type of cell with naked eye. These are shelled eggs, for example, egg of a hen. Eggs of a bird after hatching give rise young ones (chick).
With this information, answer the following questions:

Water forms two-thirds of the weight of the body. Body cells contain about 60% to 70% of water.All life processes carried out in a cell require water medium.It is essential to well being, deprivation or loss of water, as in case of diaohrrea, dysentry, vomiting etc. is more immediately serious than of any other article in diet.On the basis of above information answer the following questions:
(i) What first aid you will provide to a patient who has lost sufficient water from the body cells due to loose motions?
(ii) How would you prepare the solution to hydrate the body cells of the patient?
(iii) What would you do for the community with this information?
