Aqueous means water. Environment means surroundings. So aqueous environment simply means 'watery surroundings'. Cells are surrounded by a watery solution called tissue fluid or interstitial fluid. This forms from the blood and contains dissolved food and oxygen needed by the cells and wastes (eg carbon dioxide) produced by the cells.
