Malnutrition can affect every system in the body, depending upon the cause of the malnutrition. In mild to moderate cases of malnutrition, no symptoms or signs may be evident; however, as the condition persists, the signs and symptoms will become more pronounced.
1 Just like a solid, the density of a liquid equals the mass of the liquid divided by its volume; D = m/v. 2  The density of water is 1 gram per cubic centimeter.  The density of a substance is the same regardless of the size of the sample.
For example, the relative density of one sample of water to another sample of water is 1.0 g/ml : 1.0 g/ml, and because the units on both sides cancel each other out, the final answer simply stands at 1.0. Water typically is used as the standard for relative density calculations for solids and liquids.
