Water: The Molecule of Life.

Water is by far one of the most important Molecules in the world. All known forms of life could not exist without water. People can survive without water for about 3 days. The longest known creature to do so is a kangaroo rat which can last without outside water supply for 3-5 years (2nd longest is a giraffe, which is able to live 3 weeks without drinking water). Water is not only essential to all life forms, but it is also used in the making of many products such as paper, gasoline, lightbulbs, and much more. Water molecules are made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Oxygen and hydrogen are other important substances and also provide life to living creatures. All in all, water molecules are seen everywhere and are important as they provide life and contribute to the production of many useful products.
