Question

organism, from bacteria to humans, needs water to survive. waters chemical structure results in properties that are critical to maintaining lifes processes. for example, water is an excellent solvent capable of dissolving many different substances. as water travels through an organism, it carries minerals and nutrients needed for the organism to survive. select the true statements. every living organism needs water to survive. about three - quarters of earth is covered in land. waters chemical structure impacts its properties. water is found mostly in solid form on earths surface.

Explanation:

1. The text states "organism, from bacteria to humans, needs water to survive", so "Every living organism needs water to survive" is true.
2. In fact, about three - quarters of Earth is covered in water, not land, so "About three - quarters of Earth is covered in land" is false.
3. The text says "Water's chemical structure results in properties that are critical to maintaining life's processes", so "Water's chemical structure impacts its properties" is true.
4. Water is found mostly in liquid form on Earth's surface, not solid, so "Water is found mostly in solid form on Earth's surface" is false.

Answer:

1. Every living organism needs water to survive.
2. Water's chemical structure impacts its properties.
