A lifeguard should have a basic understanding of human Biology, particularly anatomy and physiology, to recognize signs of distress, drowning, or medical emergencies. Knowledge of how the body responds to water immersion, hypoxia, and temperature changes can aid in effective rescue and first aid. Additionally, understanding the biological effects of dehydration, heat exhaustion, and hypothermia is crucial for preventing and responding to emergencies. Familiarity with aquatic ecosystems can also help lifeguards identify potential hazards like jellyfish or harmful algae.
