Cells need water to dissolve many of the chemical components of the cell. They need to have a precise range of concentration in order to function properly. They also need water in chemical reactions called hydrolysis reactions. In these reactions, chemical compounds are broken down by the addition of water.
Water is needed by all plants to carry nutrients from the soil to the cells and transport waste products away from the cells through a process called transpiration. Water also helps plants maintain their structure and turgidity.
Water is mainly needed for your cells and cells need water because: - (Intake of) water maintains the osmotic pressure inside a cell. - Water is used to dissolve most chemicals the cell needs to function (no fatty acids) - Water is used in transportation of food and waste.
Yes. But protein and water is more necessary.
The xylem tissue in the leaf supplies water to the cells for photosynthesis. Xylem is responsible for transporting water and nutrients from the roots to the rest of the plant, including the leaf cells. This water is needed for photosynthesis to occur, as it is a key component in the process.
Water as a solvent is used in the stomach to aid digestion of food. It dilutes the hydrochloric acid secreted in the stomach in the normal digestion process. Too much acid and one suffers from acidosis/heartburn/reflux. Water as a dilutant limits this discomfort.
because they have multiple cells
They aren't needed, most calculators use batteries not solar cells.
Nutrients are needed by body cells.
water is essential in order to preform the process needed to turn nutrients into energy the cells can use.
Stem cells. that is why they are needed for research
A mineral needed by bone cells is called calcium. It is essential for structure, strength, and growth of the bones and bone cells.
Nutrients are needed by body cells.
