Density, like all complex objects, varies depending on where you measure it. Bone and cartilage are very dense while pockets of fat are less so.

buoyancy is the upward force on an object produced by the surrounding liquid or gas in which it is fully or partially immersed, due to the pressure difference of the fluid between the top and bottom of the object. The net upward buoyancy force is equal to

You text "what is the density of ..." to Mosio ... if it's less than 1, it will float ... And I'm not gay

It will float in water if it displaces more weight in water than the weight of the object. Find the volume of the object and determine if that amount of water weigs more or less. Presto!
