Answer:

The endocrine glands and the Kidneys will absorb the sport drink containing calcium and there won't be any side effects on the athlete

Step-by-step explanation:

consumption of a sports drink ( which usually contains sodium ) is very good for an athlete because it helps the athlete recover lost electrolytes during the exercising period .

The endocrine glands and the Kidneys will absorb the sport drink containing calcium and there won't be any side effects on the athlete because the Kidneys are designed to absorb the excesses of sodium in the body and dump them into the urine . that way they help the body maintain a balance of the required sodium, but the Urine passed by athlete would be acidic rather than neutral.
