The drains for the shower, toilet and sink all connect to a common line. Assuming the toilet is not backing up, the problem indicates that there may be a partial blockage, enough so that some of the toilet flow is backing up through the shower drain line.

You need Plumbing repair. The shower leak you mention should only be in the shower, or else you have a broken drain line as well.

Where would you most likely find a flapper in plumbing and what would it most likely be used to do?

A toilet flapper is found inside the tank of a toilet. It is a rubber stopper that rests over the water outlet. As the bowl is flushed, the apparatus lifts the flapper over the drain outlet hole. As the bowl and tank refills, the apparatus drops the flapper so it is again seated over the drain hole. Once the water in the tank reaches a certain level, the water automatically stops. Note: If your toilet constantly runs, most likely the flapper has not completely seated itself in the hole. Hard water can cause mineral deposits around the drain which prevents the flapper from seating properly. Also the rubber can become old and leak around the edges.NOTE: Not to be confused with 1920s "flappers", women who dressed in short skirts, gaudy jewelry and headbands, and were fond of dancing.


What is wrong if the sink and the bathtub will drain but the toilet wont flush?

The toilet itself is plugged or the pipe from the toilet to the drain is plugged. It may be that the tub and sink have their own drain pipe that may connect to the main away from the toilet drain. Plunge the toilet or sometimes if you fill a 5 gallon bucket with water and pour it into the toilet as fast as it will take it, that will flush out the line. It is a greater amount of water all at once an forces out what the clog is.


How can you poop in the toilet?

If I have hemmorrhoids and diarrhea and take a dump on a public toilet and some dude or chick who has aids took a dump on the toilet earlier will splash back from my diarrheal discharge give me aids?

One would hope the last person flushed when they were done or if not, you flushed before using that particular toilet. One would also assume that if there were feces on the seat you would not use it. Once flushed, the one or two possible viruses that might still be in the toilet bowl would be killed by the chlorine in the water. It takes very little to kill the virus outside of the body.
