A molecule of water consists of one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms joined by covalent bonds. Water as a liquid is vital to existence and plays extremely important roles in many aspects of both plant and animal lives. These aspects include temperature control‚ support‚ chemical reactions‚ transport and protection. Without the ability to control our temperature‚ we as humans would not be able to survive in our natural environment. If our internal body temperature was to rise or fall even a few degrees

by active transport in roots; * Emphasize the role of the endodermis. Most plants secure the water and minerals they need from their roots. The path taken is: soil -> roots -> stems -> leaves The minerals (e.g.‚ K+‚ Ca2+) travel dissolved in the water (often accompanied by various organic molecules supplied by root cells).Less than 1% of the water reaching the leaves is used in photosynthesis and plant growth. Most of it is lost in transpiration. However‚ transpiration does serve two

A Biome is a large natural area on Earth where specific types of plants and vegetation grow. (Kalman‚ 1997). It is a large area where the form of life of climatic vegetation is uniform and also reflects the key features of the climate which also maps out the structural form and nature of the habitat for animals. (Odum‚ 1997). The climate‚ soil-types and animal life are all constituents of a Biome. There can be numerous ecosystems in any single Biome. This is due to the fact that there are many different
