Aim: Why is water (H2O) important for living things? DO NOW: 1. Explain 2 functions of water in the human body. 2. Which 2 elements make up the structure of a molecule of water?

Water Made up of 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen

Functions of Water for Human Body

More Water Functions

Homeostasis Homeostasis is stability or keeping things at balance or equilibrium Water allows for body homeostasis

Water is important for bodily chemical reactions! Chemical reactions involve breaking and forming of chemical bonds Acts as a universal solvent, in which chemicals called solutes, can dissolve Water is present in the cytoplasm of cells, where many chemical reactions occur

Animal Cell

Think! Question: Describe 2 other reasons why water is important, but exclude humans in your reasoning.

Conserve Water! Don’t waste it!
