How does water make plants and things like grass grow?

From an young age you learn to water plants and the grass to keep it green and healthy. I know other factors such as soil and nutrients play a big role but why specifically is water needed for this?

It is needed for reactions, such as photosynthesis.

Fun fact: a plant’s biomass is mostly acquired from the carbon dioxide they get through the air, meaning that they use that carbon to grow bigger and not from the soil. Through their roots, they will get water and other minerals.
