.why can our body not function without sufficient water?list at least three reasons .
Answers
Answer: hope it helps
Explanation: 1. It helps create saliva
Water is a main component of saliva. Saliva also includes small amounts of electrolytes, mucus, and enzymes. It’s essential for breaking down solid food and keeping your mouth healthy.
2. It regulates your body temperature
Staying hydrated is crucial to maintaining your body temperature. Your body loses water through sweat during physical activity and in hot environments.
3. It helps excrete waste through perspiration, urination, and defecation
Your body uses water to sweat, urinate, and have bowel movements.
Sweat regulates body temperature when you’re exercising or in warm temperatures. You need water to replenish the lost fluid from sweat.

Explanation:
water is a major component of body fluids ( blood and lymph).
regulates body temperature.
it has a role in glycolysis, that is energy production mechanism that our body uses for keeping you alive. [The formula for the complete oxidation of glucose is: CBHI206 * 602 ÷ 6H20 ~ 12H20 * 6C0 a (1) As the formula indicates, there is an uptake of 6 moles of wate/ per mole of glucose oxidized to water and CO2. Furthermore, not obvious from this formula, the oxygen attached to carbon in CO2 comes from water. The sole function of molecular oxygen in glycolysis is to re-oxidize FADH2 and NADH. What is the function of water in this process? Where is water taken up and how does the oxygen from water appear in CO2? A balanced equation for the aerobic catabolism of glucose does not require an uptake of 6 moles of water: C6H12O6 * 602--~-I" 6H20 * 6C02 (2) The uptake of 6 waters (equation (1)) means that 12 additional electron pairs are transferred to NAD + and FAD thus doubling the yield of ATP by oxidative phosphorylation in the electron transport chain. The concept involved is therefore of fundamental importance, yet it is ignored by every biochemistry textbook with which I am familiar. Some textbooks discuss the addition of water to double bonds followed by removal of electrons and protons.]
