Document Summary
The two muscles that are necessary for life are the heart and the diaphragm. It causes their red blood cells to lyse and lose the ability to carry oxygen. Eggs are more usable to the human body than the corn and soybeans fed to the chickens to produce the eggs. Water comprises approximately 70% of the mammalian body. Water is essential for cell function, including cell respiration and metabolic pathways. Water is a major component in the body s metabolism as it is necessary for breaking bonds. Water is a major factor in temperature regulation. Newborns can become dehydrated much more rapidly than adults. More things are soluble in water than in any other solvent. Water forms the fluid environment of the cytoplasm of the cell. Cell compartments are separated by lipid containing barriers. The ph of a lysosome is 4-5, but in the rest of the cell, the ph is around 7.
