Water is essential for life. It makes up 60–75% of the human body, and a person can only survive 3 days without it.  Here are some properties of water that make it essential for life: Polarity: Water is polar, with slight positive and negative charges. This allows it to dissolve many polar and ionic substances. Heat capacity: Water absorbs and releases heat energy more slowly than many other substances. This helps moderate temperature changes within organisms and their environments. Universal solvent: Water's ability to dissolve many substances allows it to carry nutrients through the... Show more
