only when the public is aware about the ecological and environmental

2.. Water is a part of living cells Each cell in a living organism is made up
of almost 75% water, and this allows the cell to function normally. In fact,

are dissolved in water. Without water, cells would not be able to carry out
their normal functions and life could not exist.
