Detailed explanation-1: -Liquid water is an essential requirement for life on Earth because it functions as a solvent. It is capable of dissolving substances and enabling key chemical reactions in animal, plant and microbial cells. Its chemical and physical properties allow it to dissolve more substances than most other liquids.
Detailed explanation-2: -But Earth is the only known planet (or moon) to have consistent, stable bodies of liquid water on its surface.
Detailed explanation-3: -In addition to its orbit, a planetary mass object must have the potential for sufficient atmospheric pressure to support liquid water and a sufficient supply of hydrogen and oxygen at or near its surface.
Detailed explanation-4: -The standard definition for a habitable planet is one that can sustain life for a significant period; based on our solar system, life requires liquid water, energy, and nutrients.
Detailed explanation-5: -All living things, from tiny cyanobacteria to giant blue whales, need water to survive. Without water, life as we know it would not exist. And life exists wherever there is water.
