What is the only organ in your body light enough to float on water?
Well not all organs can float, but lungs can float on water
Does a drowned child float or sink?
A drowned child would initially float due to the air trapped in their lungs and clothing. However, as the body decomposes and water fills the lungs, the body would eventually sink.
Why does air in lungs help float in water?
Air in the lungs increases buoyancy because air is less dense than water. This reduces the overall density of the body, causing it to float more easily in water. The larger the volume of air in the lungs, the higher the buoyant force and the easier it is to float.
Does the piece of lungs tissue float or sink in water?
Lung tissue is denser than water and will sink when placed in it.
Why do you float in water when you swim?
When you swim, your body displaces water and creates an upward force called buoyancy. This buoyant force is greater than your weight, so you float. The more air you have in your body (like in your lungs), the higher you will float in the water.

What human organ can float on water?
the lungs
Do healthy lungs float freely in water?
Yes

Why it is easy to float in open water?
We have air in the body. Our lungs.
Why can't I float in water?
You can't float in water because your body is denser than water, causing you to sink. To float, you need to displace enough water to create buoyancy, which can be achieved by increasing the air in your lungs or using a flotation device.
Does Anorthite sink or float in water?
It will float. Its a rock. It actually depends on how much water you have, if you you tried float it in the ocean, it would obviously sink. But if you tried to float it on a gladd or bowl or water, it would float,

Do humans float on water?
Humans float in water due to the air in the lungs. This is why a dead body will sink for 24 hours before rising again. The lungs hold no air, but the gasses produced by the rotting flesh will eventually bring the body back tot he surface. This is also why dead bodies in water tend to have a bloated appearence.
Why do you float lower when you breath?
When you breath out under water, you are releasing the air from your lungs. Air is far less dense than water, which is why things that are filled with air float. So if you breath in, and then go under water you will float toward the surface. However, if you breath out and release that air in your lungs, you lose the buoyancy that the air was giving you. Thus causing you to sink...
