Cars "have" doors. Celery "partly is" water. These relations are different.

You can have a bottle without water, a car without doors, a house without wood, but you cannot have celery completely without water.
There exits desiccated powered celery.
Powered celery is celery
There is no water in powered celery.
Therefore celery can exists without water.
