Answer:
1-Water. Plants need water for photosynthesis. Absorbed by the roots, water travels through a plant's stems to the chloroplasts in the leaves. Water also helps move nutrients from the soil into the plant.
2-The water table is an underground boundary between the soil surface and the area where groundwater saturates spaces between sediments and cracks in rock. Water pressure and atmospheric pressure are equal at this boundary. ... Underneath the water table is the saturated zone, where water fills all spaces between sediments.
3-Boiling point elevation occurs when there are dissolved minerals in the water. Distilled water usually has some of the mineral impurities removed and so you would expect it to boil at exactly 100 degrees C. ... Therefore, normal tap water should boil at a higher temperature than distilled water.
4-Plants use a lot of water! Plants need water to grow! Plants are about 80-95% water and need water for multiple reasons as they grow including for photosynthesis, for cooling, and to transport minerals and nutrients from the soil and into the plant. ... Water is essential to grow corn as well as cows
5-Water is called the "universal solvent" because it is capable of dissolving more substances than any other liquid. This is important to every living thing on earth. ... This allows the water molecule to become attracted to many other different types of molecules.
