I found out that the human body can be up to 100,000 ohms. what does that mean? what shadow said helps though, thanks ohms are resistance, aka, how much the conductor oposes the current trying to travel throught it.

watts are potency, aka, Joules/second. Its the electric potency generated by a current of 1 volt and 1 amp

amps are flow rate of electric charge. One amp is equivalent to one coulomb (roughly 6.241×10^18 times electrons) per second.

volts are electric potential difference

Hoe much takes to kill a person generally depends on amps and volts.
