The weight of a complete skeleton depends on age, gender, race, and other factors, so there is no way to say all skeletons weigh this much, but it is usually between 14 and 20 percent of the original body weight.
One example I found is that an adult male weighing approximately 160 pounds might have a 30 pound skeleton.

Human bone weight varies with size, but bone density ranges from 1200 mg/cm2 to less than half that value with increased age.
The adult human body has 206 bones. However a baby has more bones, because for example the skull is in two parts and then gradually kind of like sticks together, I am unsure of how many bones a baby has. Hope I helped! x
The number of pounds of bone in a human body depends on the age and sex of the individual. Children's bones weigh less than adults.
The bones in the human body weigh between 13-20% of the weight of the body.
If you are counting only the abdominal organs, I would estimate about 12 lbs. The liver alone is about 3 pounds and takes up about 1/4 of the abdominal cavity.
In humans, blood accounts for about 1/11th of total body weight. For an average 150 lb. person, that would be about 13.6 lbs.
Your bones weigh 22 lbs.

About 55 percent of an adult human female's total body weight is water
Water is not an element, it is made of Hydrogen and Oxygen. Oxygen is the most plentiful element in the human body by weight. If you go by number of atoms, then Hydrogen would be the most plentiful.
Basic Answer:At birth, a baby can have up to 75% water weight and this decreases with age.More:The human body has a variable water content that changes daily and with age and gender and body type.On average, adult humans have 57 to 60 % water by mass.At birth, a baby can have up to 75% water weight and this decreases with age.Obese individuals can have as little as 45% water weight.Women tend to have a few percent less water weight than men, but this is largely a difference in muscle and fat between individuals.
H20 - water.

About 40 liters of water are in the human body which, is about 57 percent of an average human's weight. Newborn babies can be about 75 percent, although it gradually decreases throughtout life. Most of the declining occurs in the first ten years of life.
Water is not an element, it is made of Hydrogen and Oxygen. Oxygen is the most plentiful element in the human body by weight. If you go by number of atoms, then Hydrogen would be the most plentiful.
the human body is 75% water so in other words yes the human body is mostly water. with 25% left over for air, fat, and skin to take part of. any questions? call GHOST BUSTERS! jk dont i dont think they have a number...
Human bodies are made up of about 57% water. With a baby (where the bones are not yet calcified and the muscles are not yet developed), the percentage of water is even higher at 75% by weight.
