Water is vital for human being and animals.....
We humans and animals are very closely related in almost all aspects of life; we share our DNA, we have a common ancestor with each other, and we were the first organism to reach space, and so on. Therefore, the survival of both human beings and animals depends on how well they can adapt and respond to these problems. They both depend on some essential life components like water, air, food, and shelter. This is why we need it. So, how does this vital component remain and how can it be preserved? Humans Need Drinking Water Humans, on average, require about seven liters of liquid (or more for adults and infants) per day. That’s not a lot, but one needs enough water to sustain themselves even if they don’t need or want anything else. Water is important for many critical bodily functions. For instance, it maintains muscle strength, blood pressure, and skin pH. It also plays an important role in digestion, reproduction, excretion, metabolism, transportation, respiration, brain activity, immune cells, cardiovascular function and. All of these functions are linked to our bodies natural processes, which include body temperature regulation, our ability to regulate our urine production, and other biological functions that involve temperature, blood volume, and oxygen intake. Humans Must Drink Water Too Humans must drink plenty of fluids to survive our daily lives because no other creature needs as much water as us. However, humans do need more fluids than most other creatures. A person living near higher altitudes would need at least 14 cups of liquids over several days of high elevation, such as mountain rivers, glaciers, lakes, and springs. Similarly, sea mammals need 15-30 gallons of fluids every day. Not only this, they need plenty of fluids throughout the year; however, their daily fluid requirements are significantly lower than primates or dolphins. The following figure shows how our fluid requirements compare with those of various animal species: As humans, we need fluids to play sports! It isn’t just for swimming, though. Many activities require large amounts of hydration to keep us from having to carry extra fluids through our system. We are also extremely sensitive to dehydration and may need extra fluids if we get sick. This is important because it helps prevent dehydration, leading to serious consequences, including dizziness and loss of consciousness. If we are unable to find adequate fluids, we will likely suffer from heatstroke, which could result in death if there is a long delay between heat exposure and the warning signs. Humans Are Extremely Sensitive To Their Urination Humans have exceptional control of our urinary systems. When people urinate, their urethra contracts and releases urine, which causes urine to flow out of the body. Even small changes in this process can lead to severe or deadly consequences. As a consequence, it has become routine in our culture to see any sign of leakage and ask “have you eaten anything in the last couple of hours?” We use this ritual to assess whether someone is leaking into our bodies. When we notice this, we immediately stop them for a few moments — usually because they are trying to hide something or, perhaps, maybe because they are tired. Most of the time, what we find is one of two things: no idea why anyone should be leaking and the lack of a way to know when they should go to the bathroom. Humans May Not Have Enough Of An Erector Humans have evolved to be highly mobile. Since they are extremely capable of moving around they also don’t appear to have the desire to store excess fluid. One reason so is that they aren’t able to store extra fluids because their urinary system is not built for storing this kind of fluid. Instead, they store it in their bladders, as you can see in Figure 1. Bladders are made for storing urine and water, and the majority of the waste products from your bladder, except for feces, pee, etc. Humans Also Lose Fluids During Exercise We spend nearly half of the day on our feet and most often run, and as soon as we hit the pavement and start running, we begin losing fluids because we are dehydrated and our muscles can no longer hold water. Then we can barely move without losing water completely. Sometimes, however, it can take place for hundreds of seconds. At times, like after running up hills, we may even lose water and then forget it. Humans Can Get Sick By Leaving Water Out Humans need water and an appropriate amount for a specific physical condition — for example, if we have a cough, we should drink water to relieve our coughing. Unfortunately, humans often leave water out, either intentionally or unintentionally. Another way humans can get sick by leaving something out in an uncontrollable quantity is when they have dropped water when running — water leaks into their system, causing diarrhea as you can see. Unfortunately, many people don’t realize that when they lose fluids while running, they are depleting their glycogen. This is how people can get sick by drinking too much water and forgetting to eat beforehand. Just like how our urine goes down the toilet after a shower, the same thing happens to the water after you leave the tap running on the ground and it gets rid of all the substances. So, make sure your water is always pure and clear before leaving you out! Humans Are Evolved Towards Hygiene Humans have a good sense of hygiene. Our ability to protect ourselves (e.g. avoid germs) is based on hundreds of thousands of years of evolution. In particular, we developed respiratory systems that prevent bad germs from infecting us. After all, humans have inhaled their ancestors before. Thus, we developed an innate sense of the importance of being clean at all times for hygiene. Humans Also Have High Rates Of Disease Caused By a Lack Of Hygiene Humans are instinctive, meaning that we tend to behave better in places where other things are easier. This means that we need to maintain a decent level of hygiene. People who live in less hygienic environments tend to develop diseases faster. Furthermore, most countries have strict laws against pollution in the form of contaminated water or soil. These laws have made human life extremely difficult. More than half of humanity still doesn’t have access to a safe environment in which to live. Thus, human health deterioration largely boils down to this, and unfortunately, we cannot escape from this kind of behavior towards hygiene. Human health deteriorates when we do not want to be healthy, either by neglecting it or deliberately spreading disease to others. But sadly, this is very uncommon in western cultures, and western populations are now aware of it. Humans Are Highly Adapted To Health Issues Humans are incredibly adaptive when it comes to their ability to deal with illnesses. As an evolutionary biologist knows, most pathogens have been passed to humankind from other animals, not humans. Humans are therefore best equipped to combat infectious illnesses, whereas many animals are quite ill without knowing what they are doing. Thus, as long as we maintain a solid understanding of what illnesses are and what we can do to eliminate them, our species remains far better equipped than most other to deal with. Although some experts think otherwise, science is clear: viruses and bacteria aren’t going anywhere anytime soon, and it’s just going to get worse. So, now more than ever we need to understand what diseases we have and what they mean for mankind, what we can do to fight them and how to prevent them from taking part in our everyday. The World Health Organization estimates that at least 60 percent of all non-communicable diseases are caused by micro-organisms. HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, Stomach Ulcer, Cholera, Diarrheal Fever, Leptospira (a bacterium), Measles, and Rubella — are transmitted. Thus, we have to adopt the habit of keeping our hands clean, getting vaccinated against some diseases, and washing our hands regularly. Otherwise, we’ll have a hard time making it through the rest of human history. Humans Must Protect the Environment Humans are adapted for social interaction. While most other animals have social intelligence, humans have language and social behavior patterns that enable us to work effectively together to achieve specific. Social bonds, community, norms, and values play an immense effect on our society. Humans have a deep sense of pride. Because of this, we also enjoy protecting the environment to preserve our future. Despite this, scientists have found evidence that climate change is affecting the health of human societies, and it may affect our population, as they are affected by different kinds of diseases, particularly in tropical areas, particularly in Africa were. Climate change makes humans vulnerable, but humans themselves can adapt. Our planet will not be uninhabitable until humanity decides that we are willing to sacrifice our comfort for survival. And we really can change our lives for the sake of survival. Humans Must Maintain Appropriate Levels of Hydration Humans are exceptionally efficient at maintaining hydration. Since humans are among the most intelligent beings on earth, we can also adjust our eating habits for proper nutrition. Moreover, our brains can help us solve complex spatial relationships among objects. Consequently, humans can maintain adequate levels of water and maintain optimal hydration. Here are two ways in which we can protect our hydration levels: Drinking water, especially at high altitudes, can help reduce the risk of hyponatremia (low levels of sodium). Water is an electrolyte and we must stay hydrated. It is known that in low-gravity environments, our brains don’t receive.
