question 2/10

Explanation:

Exertional heat illness is related to factors like body's ability to regulate heat. Weight (more mass may generate more heat), prior recent illness (can affect body's thermoregulation), and age (younger or older may be more vulnerable) are risk factors. Level of fitness (higher fitness can improve heat tolerance) is also relevant. However, the amount of hydration before activity is a preventive measure (not a risk factor as it helps reduce the chance of heat illness).

Answer:

Amount of hydration before activity
