It takes roughly two weeks, one gallon of water is standard, however, warmer climates requires more water intake depending on humidity, temperature, and how much one works out or how much energy they expend in a day. Also, people on certain medications may require more water intake.

When a person dies, all of the bodily functions cease. If there is waste in the intestinal tract, once the muscles of the body relax then the waste may come out. It can happen at different times, it may happen soon after death but it is more common after rigor.

Discuss why the body is unable to reduce its fluid output to zero no matter how dehydrated it is?

Because there are still filtered out waster left in the body. If those filtered waste stays in your body, you will poison yourself and die. Dehydrated or not, you still have to get rid of waste. But the waste will be close to 100% waste, not water. ---- Additional answer from a doctor: The body can only recycle a certain level of fluid. When dehydrated the body releases a hormone that tells the distal tubules in the nephrons of the kidneys to start reabsorbing water. The higher the levels the fast the reabsorbtion up to a point. Since the tubules are open all the way to the end they can't STOP water being removed, only slow it down by sucking up as mcuh as they can. Unfortunately the kidneys don't have millions of tiny corks to put in the end. Thus you keep peeing until dead.


What happens if the body does can not get rid of waste?

You are describing liver, kidney, or lung failure ... the 3 organs that eliminate waste. First you get weak, feel sick, and then you die. This can take as little as a few days to many years, depending on the degree of failure.
