i presumed approximately this at present, in that does a fish comprehend that water is moist? The 'wetness' is relative to what we are as human beings, in that we are, on the exterior, 'dry'. yet, some thing like a fish could perceive the water as some thing different. yet because of the fact the human physique is seventy 5% water, why do no longer we sense moist? Why do no longer we grow to be moist if we are seventy 5% water? on an identical time as there is the accepted nature of water, its wetness is a few thing that we use as a label. yet lower back, wetness is likewise based on what we are relative to the character of the water. yet a fish can drown in air, by way of what the fish is relative to air.

Good question....

Water is water and it makes things wet just as vinegar can aslo make things wet but is not wet itself. If you add more water to water you end up with just more water, but when you add water to something that lacks water or is dry you make it wet. This also applies to vinegar.

So wetness is the effect of adding water to something but not to itself. I think.

Sorry if I've repeated someones answer...

Both. Being wet means that water molecules cling to something and water clings to itself and other stuff! If you add a wetting agent to water such as soap it helps water be a better wetting agent! you need to study Chem 101 to have a better understanding.

It is not a stupid question.......
it is pure logic...
the word wet; means water adsorbed on something.....
a wet floor means a floor with water adsorbed on its surface.....
water is not wet.....
because you can not say water is adsorbed to itself
but when it is adsorbed on some thing else, it makes it wet......
