  8. Discuss the function of water in our body? What are the visible & invisible sources of water?

    Ans.) An important nutrient .75 to 80 percent of our total body is water. it’s a structural & functional unit of our body. the whole humour is distributed among two major components.

    Extracellular fluid – contain sodium

    Intercellular fluid – contain potassium & these two ions have to be maintained all time.

    Water is formed from hydrogen & oxygen the ratio is 2:1. We lose water daily through sweat, urine, feces, etc. The deficiency of water causes dehydration, so we’ve to take care of the water balance of our body.
