Answer:

Water is the universal solvent in biological systems. - TRUE

Water bathes organs in fluid, which provides protection and support. - FALSE

The high specific heat of water means that we only lose a small amount of heat when the sweat on our skin evaporates. - FALSE

Water plays a major role in our bodies’ chemical reactions. - TRUE

Explanation:

Water dissolves polar molecules hence critical solvent for energy molecules such as glucose and electrolytes such as sodium. Water also acts as a metabolite in reactions such as photolysis in photosynthesis and also in hydrolysis reactions. Water is a temperature buffer due to its high heat capacity (meaning it takes more energy to raise the temperature of water by one degree). This means it is good for the regulation of temperatures in the body.

What is soil erosion?
Roman55 [17]

Soil erosion is defined as the wearing away of topsoil. Topsoil is the top layer of soil and is the most fertile because it contains the most organic, nutrient-rich materials. Therefore, this is the layer that farmers want to protect for growing their crops and ranchers want to protect for growing grasses for their cattle to graze on.
