Why Water Is Necessary In Life?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Water is essential for life because it is a major component of cells, tissues, and organs. In fact, over two-thirds of the human body is made up of water. Water is needed for our bodies to maintain a proper temperature, lubricate our joints, and remove waste.

As we come to know that water is essential for our survival. But did you know that the quality of water is just as important as the quantity? Filtered water is one of the best ways to ensure that you and your family are getting the cleanest, safest water possible. For more details, visit our website(Waterlogic.pk)

Does using a snorkel improve lung capacity?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I'm no doctor, but I would think just being in an outdoor water activity should be better than sitting at home.

Other than that, snorkeling on the surface is not much more than simple breathing, but if you occasionally hold your breath and shallow-dive to see more, it would be akin to being on shore and holding your breath, if that increases lung function.

How should you take care of your downhill skis?

User Avatar

Asked by JillianG

Downhill ski poles...oh how they are often misused in skiing. The purpose of your ski poles is to help provide balance. However, you don't lean on the them or rely on them too much. Ski balance should originate from your core abdominal muscles, buttocks, and legs. How you place your shoulders while skiing makes a difference as well. You want to keep your shoulders square to the hill or in other words, facing the bottom of the hill. You plant your ski pole as you are initiating a turn. You plant one ski pole at a time. For example, you plant your left ski pole as you are turning to the left. And vice versa - you plant your right ski pole as you are turning to the right. Do not lift your ski pole high in the air. This is a waste of time and energy. Instead quickly and smoothly plant it into the ground and remove it at the completion of your turn.

Sound (or speech ) is merrily a influx of vibration by the vocal cords that vibrate by exhaling the air through the throat ,so basically think of it like this "you blow a ballon ,but you don't tie it instead you pull the sides causeing a sound that sounds like flapping ,the more air you blew into ballon the longer it will make the sound ,Now let's blow it up and tie it and pop it with a needle ,it's much louder isn't it ? " try breathing in and talking and see for yourself :p
