The properties and biological importance's of water to living organisms
Water is a simple molecule, yet it is fundamental to life. In active living cells, two-thirds, or often more, of the area is occupied by water, and two-thirds of the globe is covered in water. Water is therefore extremely abundant, and in biological terms it has great importance both inside cells, and externally, for example as a habitat The simple molecule of H2O has many interesting physical and chemical properties which contribute to its …showed first 75 words of 1414 total…

If there is a weaker solution outside, water As the cell becomes turgid the cell wall exists a enters the cell by osmosis, moving down its 'wall-pressure'. This resists further concentration gradient. The cell does not water entry by osmosis. The turgidity of the cell resist the entry of water, as there is little or gives support to non-woody organs of a plant. no 'wall-pressure'
