c. resting
Explanation: Water intoxication (hyponatremia) is more likely with heavy fluid intake combined with sodium loss or impaired excretion (heat stress, overexertion/exercise, low body mass increases dilution). Resting does not predispose to the excessive sodium loss or intake patterns that cause water intoxication.
