"recognize " and "realize"
I have some sentence:
1.I didnt realize you were so unhappy.
2.The moment I saw her I realized somethign was wrong.
3.They recognized the need to take the problem seriously.

what I wanna ask is that could the "realize" and "recognize" here replace each other as the meaning what I think is "aware".
