Date Posted: Jan 12, 2003 #6. I don't think prefecture really converts to city or state.. heh.. the way I always look at it, the japanese just have a different system of describing areas. Obviously, there's Japan, the country.. then there are the areas of the islands, like Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu.. then there are cities like Tokyo..
The percentage of water varies according to your age and gender. Here's a look at how much water is inside you. Answer: The amount of water in the human body ranges from 50-75%. The average adult human body is 50-65% water, averaging around 57-60%. The percentage of water in infants is much higher, typically around 75-78% water, dropping to 65% by one year of age. Body composition varies according to gender and fitness level, because fatty tissue contains less water than lean tissue. The average adult male is about 60% water.
By weight, the average human adult male is approximately 60% water and the average adult female is approximately 55%. There can be considerable variation in body water percentage based on a number of factors like age, health, weight, and sex. In a large study of adults of all ages and both sexes, the adult human body averaged ~65% water. However, this varied substantially by age, sex, and adiposity (amount of fat in body composition).
