Water being the major component of our body cells‚ typically making 70-95% of it‚ constructs the body mass with approximately 80% being water. Humans are not the only ones who contain the valued material but other creatures like the jellyfish hold 96% of water as their body mass. The structure of the water molecules enables it to have extreme properties that are

Enzymes are biological molecules‚ or proteins‚ that act as catalysts. Enzymes help complex reactions so that they may occur everywhere in life. For example‚ when you eat meat‚ the proteases work to help break down the peptide bonds that occur among the amino acids. Enzymes usually work to complete one specific job which makes them specific catalysts. They also won’t be found all over the body‚ enzymes are found in neural cells‚ intestinal cells‚ and saliva. Enzymes are among the many organic macromolecules
