In small doses, it is not toxic at all.
Having a bath in it is perfectly safe.
The percentage of salt in the Dead Sea is very high though. This would make it almost undrinkable to most creatures, including man. If forcing yourself to drink too much of it, then this could be deadly.
When the body get too much salt, then the kidneys work overtime trying to get rid of this excessive salt. Kidney failure can be the result.
The water from the Dead Sea will sting quite a bit in eyes. Sort of a blinding pain in eyes.
It will also sting in open sores and where the skin is not as it should be as in places of psoriasis.
It does a good job of rinsing sores though. It kills off germs and skin parasites like a thrill if you keep soaked for long enough. As the moisture inside bacteria and parasites is not as salty as the water, the effect of osmosis will force the fresh water out of them and they mostly die off.
Our skin however (on most of us) provide an excellent barrier and protect us from this and we actually benefit from a swim or a soak in such water.
Irises are toxic to all mammals.
Marine mammals live and water and they need to surface to breathe. While land mammals can breathe just as humans do.
No, humans are mammals...
Pyrite itself is not toxic to humans, but it can produce sulfuric acid when exposed to air and water, which can be harmful if ingested or inhaled.
Yes, mosquitoes are generally found around water. Mostly because they lay their eggs in water so that the larva can survive and because humans and other such mammals tend to be near water.
Arrowhead is the name of a mass market brand of bottled water. It is used mainly by humans as a nutritional requirement. It can also be used for other mammals such as cats and dogs.
because they cannot live out of the water and yes they are mammals!!
Almost all mammals are 'placental'. Humans, tigers, dogs, cats, cows, mice, elephants, etc.
Pure H2O, or water, is not toxic to humans when consumed in normal amounts. However, consuming extremely large quantities of water in a short period of time can lead to water intoxication, which can be dangerous.
Water shrews have venomous saliva, but cannot puncure the skin of large mammals, like humans. Watch out for water shrews!!!
Humans and chimps are the only mammals that have to be taught how to swim. All other mammals are natural swimmers. Most amphibians can swim, and some reptiles, but reptiles like to be kept dry. Only some birds can swim. Pelacans, Segals, and other birds around water can sit on top of the water, but I think segals can dive under water for food.
The shark is least like the others as it lives in water. Also the others are considered to be mammals just as humans are.
