True or False? Water Makes up 60% of females and 50% of males.
A
True
B
False
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In adult men, about 60% of their bodies are water. However, fat tissue does not have as much water as lean tissue. In adult women, fat makes up more of the body than men, so they have about 55% of their bodies made of water.

Detailed explanation-2: -Most of the human body is water, with an average of roughly 60%. The amount of water in the body changes slightly with age, sex, and hydration levels. While the average percentage of water in a person’s body is around 60%, the percentage can vary from roughly 45–75%.

Detailed explanation-3: -For men, the ideal body water percentage fluctuates between 50% and 65% of the total body. In babies, that number is much higher. The norm is considered to be between 75% and 78%, dropping to 65% by one year of age.

Detailed explanation-4: -Water covers about 71% of the earth’s surface. 97% of the earth’s water is found in the oceans (too salty for drinking, growing crops, and most industrial uses except cooling). 3% of the earth’s water is fresh.
