Living Things Need Water
17
Without water, your body would stop working properly. Water makes up more than half of your body weight and a person can't survive for more than a few days without it. Your body has lots of important jobs and it needs water to do many of them. For instance, your blood, which contains a lot of water, carries oxygen to all the cells of your body. Without oxygen, those tiny cells would die and your body would stop working. Why? WHY IS WATER SO IMPORTANT?
