In the purest sense, no you cannot live without water. Your body is made up of an estimated sixty percent water and it is vital for life functions. You can live for approximately three to four days without water. However, when you are asking if you can subsist on anything else, many things that you might choose do in fact contain water. Other drinks, even sodas have water content, as do many fruits and vegetables. It is possible to get enough hydration from sources other than pure water, but not to survive without it entirely.

You can subsist yourself on a certain beverage but not for a long period of time.
I believe the most you can go without water is a little over a week. Not long.
You wont die from it, but you will be extremely dehydrated. <span />

Answer:

1. You will be unable to smell

3. Your olfactory receptor cells will no longer be able to respond to molecules trapped in the mucus.

Explanation:

The Olfactory receptors are the receptors present in the olfactory neurons which detect different odorants or smell.

The olfactory receptors are embedded in the epithelium or mucous lining of the nose in which one extension of the cell body reaches the epithelium surface and branches into cilia like structures which sense the odour.

If the axons of the olfactory cells are broken then the cells will not be able to respond to the molecules trapped in the mucus and thus no detection of odour. The signal will not be generated in response and thus will not be sent to the brain. Thus, the person will not be able to smell.

Thus, Options-1 and 3 are correct.

A mixture that cannot be separated by a semipermeable membrane

saul85 [17]

Transparent solute cannot be separated from solvent by filtration or by passing through semipermeable membrane.

<h3>Can suspensions be separated by semipermeable membrane?</h3>

Suspensions are heterogeneous that are various from solutions or colloids.

The particles of a suspension are so large that they can often be seen with the eye. They are trapped by filters and semipermeable membranes.

Thus, Transparent solute cannot be separated from solvent by filtration.
