In the purest sense, no you cannot live without water. Your body is made up of an estimated sixty percent water and it is vital for life functions. You can live for approximately three to four days without water. However, when you are asking if you can subsist on anything else, many things that you might choose do in fact contain water. Other drinks, even sodas have water content, as do many fruits and vegetables. It is possible to get enough hydration from sources other than pure water, but not to survive without it entirely.

You can subsist yourself on a certain beverage but not for a long period of time.
I believe the most you can go without water is a little over a week. Not long.
You wont die from it, but you will be extremely dehydrated.

Background extinction refers to the normal extinction rate. These are species that go extinct simply because not all life can be sustained on Earth and some species simply cannot survive. Mass extinction is a widespread event that wipes out the majority (over 50%) of living plants and animals.

How can a scientist test a hypothesis if it is not possible to do a controlled experiment.

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

In an experiment, the researcher needs to have a control group with an experimental group where both groups are identical in every way except that the controlled group does not gets the experimental treatment.

Sometimes, it is not possible to do a test or the experiment utilizing a controlled trial (due to ethical reasons or no practical method available). All things considered, a researcher may test a theory by making predictions about outcomes or patterns that ought to be found in nature if the hypothesis is right.
