Why is sea water not fit for drinking???
Answers
Answer:
Seawater is toxic to humans because your body is unable to get rid of the salt that comes from seawater. Your body normally gets rid of excess salt by having the kidneys produce urine, but it needs freshwater to dilute the salt in your body for the kidneys to work properly.

Some animals have evolved ways to get around the problem of all that extra salt in sea water. For example, albatrosses have special salt glands just behind their eye sockets that take up the salt in the water a bird gulps and then secretes it in a salt solution that drains out through the tip of its beak.
