Water Security Activity Water Basis of Life
1) Selection of activity:
The activity that I am working on today is water the basis of life. I am
really looking forward to complete this activity as well as to gain
more knowledge about water in general. Oceans have peaked my
interest since I was a child and now I am working on something very
closely related to oceans.
2) Introduction:
Water makes up roughly 60% of our bodies, and we can only survive
for three to five days without it. Water performs numerous
important functions in the body, including waste removal,
temperature regulation, nutrient transport, and digestion. The word
"water" comes from the Old English word wæter or from the Proto-
Germanic watar or German Wasser. All of these words mean "water"
or "wet."
Water is said to be one of the earth's most essential resources and
rightly so. Human beings can survive without food for many weeks,
but without water, one will die in just a few days. The earth's
uniqueness lies in the fact that it harbours life and it has water on its
surface.

4) Procedure:
Water plays an impotent role in the field of agriculture. Irrigation is
possible with the help of water. Water is useful for various domestic
uses like washing clothes, bathing, cooking, etc. Water is helping for
balancing the ecosystem. Also, it is useful in many industries like the
steel industry, fertilizers, chemicals, cement, paper, etc. Through water,
we are also generating electricity. Water is an essential source of fish,
wildlife, and recreation. A human can live without food for some days
but cannot live without water.
While water is essential to all living things, humans have been using it
for multiple purposes and it is of utmost significance to us. In other
words, it is the most essential element to keep our bodies healthy and
organs in good shape. We don’t only need it for drinking but also to
regulate the temperature of our bodies. Furthermore, the agricultural
field requires a lot of water. It is needed to produce crops and irrigate
the fields so crops can grow successfully. After that, we have water as a
mode of transport for passengers and goods.
