It was salt to the ancient Egyptians. They used it to fill dead bodies in the mummification process to absorb moisture. By the way...the mummification process took 70 days to complete.
The ability to receive, hold, or absorb
Fluorescent material immediately glows when exposed to ultraviolet radiation, that is it fluoresces. Phosphorescent material slowly absorbs and re-emits the radiation it absorbs. This enables phosphorescent material to absorb visible light spectra to "glow in the dark" at a later time.
To make Natron you will need Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda) and Sodium Chloride (Table Salt). Measure equal quantities of both 50/50 and mix together. Important Note: Natron is a desiccant which means that it absorbs water. You should therefore keep your mix in an airtight container to prevent it from adsorbing moisture from the atmosphere. Ancient Egyptians left human bodies in Natron for around 4 0 days to completely dry however, you will need to experiment with these times dependant on the size of the specimen to be mummified.
the Romans would slaughter their enemies at a distance. shields wouldn't be thick enough to absorb the shots and the roman empire would live on

If there was more heat to absorb than was already in the material.
They had cactus juice and sagebrush. Sagebrush is a type of desert seaweed that is very dry and lumpy. An ancient story from the Egyptians told that sagebrush was a sign of sickness because of the lumps. Now we know that sagebrush has these lumps to absorb water through the branches!
Asbestos is a porous material and can absorb water.
A material known for its ability to absorb water is called a hydrophilic material. Examples include cotton, paper, and certain types of polymers.
The material in a sponge. The material in a sponge.
The solubility of a material in water is how much the object can absorb.
The color of a material affects heat radiation by influencing the material's ability to absorb and reflect heat. Darker colors absorb more heat because they absorb a wider range of wavelengths, while lighter colors reflect more heat because they absorb less energy from the sunlight. Ultimately, the color of a material impacts its temperature and how it interacts with its environment.
transpiration
No. It will absorb water.
they absorb it from the host of the cell
The best material to absorb water effectively is a superabsorbent polymer, which can hold a large amount of water relative to its own weight.
