dc.description.abstract"We are mostly water." True or false? Strange as it may seem, it's true! Our bodies are 75 percent water. In fact, some animals such as jellyfish are up to 99 percent water - about the same amount as a human embryo! All living things need at least some water, and all also return water to the environment. We renew ourselves constantly through water; if we didn't, we would die.
