question Number nine asks about dehydration and colder temperatures and lower percent relative humidities to see if there's a connection between the two. It asks you to explain why it is easy to get dehydrated when you are exercising at zero degrees Celsius and a relative humidity of 20%. I'm not convinced that you can easily get dehydrated when you're exercising at zero degrees Celsius, because you're probably not sweating very much. And I think dehydration is mostly due to sweating and not due to the fact that you are breathing in, ah, higher humidity air, although it does come into play a little bit. So building upon this idea that dehydration is not occurring due to sweating and that when you exhale, you breathe out water. You need to replenish that when you inhale, and if there is less water vapor in the air, then just due to breathing, you're going to dehydrate mawr quickly, not from sweating because you're exhaling more water vapor than you are inhaling the relative humidity. I'm sorry, the at a relative humidity of 20% and zero degrees Celsius. The amount of water vapor in the air is very, very small. We're looking at about maybe 00.1 moles of water per 1000 leaders. So taking this into account just due to breathing than you could dehydrate more quickly.
