In a survival situation, how long can you survive without food?

2-3 days
2-3 weeks
4-5 days
4-5 weeks

The correct answer is: 2-3 days

In a survival situation, you can generally survive without food for about 2-3 weeks. Water is more critical to immediate survival than food, so it is essential to prioritize water intake first. Without food, the body will start breaking down fat reserves and then muscle tissue to generate energy. However, individual factors such as hydration levels, body fat percentage, and overall health can affect how long someone can survive without food. Therefore, it is crucial to find food sources as soon as possible in a survival situation to maintain energy and strength. Option B, 2-3 days, is too short of a timeframe for survival without food. Option C, 4-5 days, is also shorter than the generally accepted timeframe for survival. Option D, 4-5 weeks, is too long of a period to survive without food.
