Document Summary
It performs many functions transport , chemical reactions control of body temperature. Adipose tissues contain little water so obese individuals have less body water than children. Disease results in water going where it shouldn"t a lot of times. The shared electrons of the 0 - h bond are attracted to the oxygen molecule. This gives hydrogen a partial positive charge , and oxygen a partial negative charge . water is polar. Properties of water polarity the of water allows polar molecules to dissolve. Hydrogen bonds are formed with polar compounds and hydration shells surround ion. Water molecules arrange themselves appropriately , according to charge. , always breaking and reforming so that solutes can move in solution and water can move through pores in cell membranes. Water moves towards directions with higher solute concentration leotrolytes and osmolarity. Electrolytes are anions ( ui hcoi , pout) and cations.
