Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C), (D)

The correct options are
B Helps in removal of wastes from the body.
C Our body obtains water from beverages.
D Water helps our body to absorb nutrient.

Water itself is not a nutrient but it helps our body to absorb nutrients from food. It also helps in throwing out some wastes from the body as urine and sweat. Normally, we get most of the water that our body needs from the liquids we drink such as water, milk, juice, tea etc.
