A

Oxygen

21
Q

Why is water important?

Your Answer:

A

Water is important because we depend on it for our survival; all living things need it. We consume water when eating and drinking, and plants need water for growth.

22
Q

Why is carbon important?

Your Answer:

A

Carbon is important because if we did not have it, all the plants would die, which means no oxygen.
