Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Proteins are attracted to water, which means they are hydrophilic. As a result, they can help determine the distribution of fluids in living systems. Proteins can interact with water, ions, and other biomolecules, which can affect the movement of fluids within cells and between cells and their environment.
