Usually scientists looking for life on other planets try to determine first if the planet had or has evidence of water. Develop
Simora [160]

Answer:

water is essential for life as we know

Explanation:

Water (H2O) is essential for life (i.e. carbon-based life) because this molecule has unique chemical properties. First, water is a universal solvent that helps cells to transport and use essential molecules (e.g., oxygen and nutrients). Second, water molecules help cells to maintain their shape/structure by generating pressure within the cells. Third, the polarity of water helps the formation of phospholipidic membranes because phospholipids have polar heads that interact with water and nonpolar tails that interact with each other. Fourth, water has a high heat capacity, thereby helping to regulate the temperature in the (intracellular) environment. Finally, water molecules also have unique adhesion and cohesion properties that enable the movement of substances against gravity (adhesion) and create a surface tension (cohesion) that helps to the formation of bubbles with water.

What is an endemic species?
natima [27]

Endemism

Endemism is the state of a species being native to a single defined geographic location, such as an island, state, nation, country or other defined zone; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere.

Explanation:

Endemic species are those that are found in just one region and nowhere else in the world. For example, kangaroos are originally endemic to Australia and are found nowhere else in the world. ... The Tasmanian Tiger is one such animal that was endemic to Australia, Tasmania and New Guinea. But now, it is extinct.

Water is often called the "universal solvent" because many substances can be dissolved in water. What property of water allows i
Katen [24]

Answer:

a) The positive and negative charges on water molecules form strong attractions toward ions and other charged particles.

Explanation:

Water molecules have a polar arrangement of oxygen and hydrogen atoms. Hydrogen atoms have a positive charge and oxygen has a negative charge. This property allows water to be attracted to many substances. The water molecules can disrupt the attractive forces between components of a molecule and thus dissolve it.
