A nymph. You might mean dragon/damselflies, their larvae look a bit like them but without wings and with larger mouthparts. Damselfly larvae have feathery gills at their tail end.

If you meant water bugs (which live in water as adults, like boatmen etc), that's a nymph too, and will look even more like a wingless adult. ^^ Hope I helped!

What is the most important thing in water on earth?

Without water, there would be no life on Earth as we know it. According to scientists, water is the fundamental life-producing ingredient. It is believed that any planet that contains water in liquid form has a high degree of chance in producing life. Water is an universal solvent with many unique properties (e.g., water in ice form floats and expands while other frozen solvents increase density and reduce in size) and it is this property that provides life to aquatic micro-organisms, which can evolve into aquatic animals or land animals.

Why does the fact that water expands when frozen allow all life on earth to continue?

This property makes ice less dense than water, making it buoyant. This allows ice to form sheets on top of water rather than below, keeping the rest of the water from freezing, therefore allowing aquatic life to survive in cold places, which may go on to serve as food sources for animals on land like penguins and seals.
