mineral ions are mainly lost when you exercise (run) or get too hot. This causes your body to go into intant unconious cool down which means you sweat. Sweat is water particles (mineral ions) so when our bodies get rid of it, you're loosing water/mineral ions. This also means that you should top up your intake of water as you dont want to sweat too much that you loose it all.

Why should you not expect the halides ions to dissolve in mineral oil?

halide ions strongly interact with the counter-ions. However, mineral oil is non-polar. To dissolve the halide ions (and the counter-ions) into mineral oil would drastically raise system energy. Thus it does not work. More simply, halide ions have a charge and won't easily dissolve in non-polar substances, since like-dissolves-like.

What are 4 human body conditions that must be controlled?

There's body temperature, which in humans is 37*C. Also there's blood sugar, which is controlled by the hormone insulin produced in the pancreas. Water and mineral ions are also controlled by the body. You may lose water and mineral ions by sweating, urine and also by breathing out. This is controlled by the nervous system and hormones. Sorry, I don't know a fourth yet
