The essential molecule that comprises an average of 60% of any living organisms' cells is water. Water is a molecule made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Water is an essential part that makes up the matrix of the inside and outside membranes of, for example, tissues in the human body. Water, to a certain degree, also helps maintain balance of electrolytes and solutes that go in and out of the cell. It also maintains hydrostatic pressure in the circulatory system of the body via the balance of Starling Forces. These are just a few examples of the importance of water and hence why living things need so much of them. This is also why water is one of the first things astronauts look for in planets to determine if life is possible there or if there was life before.
Other important elements that make living things are nitrogen (N) and calcium (Ca). To serve as a reference point, we can look at the human body. The amount of nitrogen (N) in the body is about 3.2%. Calcium (Ca) on the other hand, is about 1.5%
Answer:
The knowledge of simple biological reactions tells us that the product of reactions results from the complete or partial use of the reactants. In some reversible reactions, products can be converted to reactants in equal volume. Hence, in reactions that cannot be reversed, as evident in respiration, its waste products can be used to indicate that indeed respiration did take place. When glucose is consumed it is broken down through a series of reactions to give carbon dioxide and water as waste products.
Explanation:
Yes. For example every tree that is cut down you can plant a tree so the tree will grow back.
Since plants can asexually reproduce you can take a branch from it and plant it (or you can get some seeds from the plant like a normal person would)
