The polarity of water enables it to serve as a solvent for polar substances.

A polar substance is a substance that has a positive end and a negative end. Water itself is a polar substance and this polarity enables it to dissolve polar substances.

For instance, HCl dissolves in water because it is polar. The positive end of the dipole in HCl attaches to the negative end of the dipole in water and the negative end of the dipole in HCl attaches to the positive end of the dipole in water.

This dipole - dipole interaction accounts for the dissolution of HCl in water.

Also, ion - dipole interaction accounts for the dissolution of ionic substances such as NaCl in water.

Can you write a short summary about DNA. The main facts and purposes plz and thankyou... WILL UPVOTE
fiasKO [112]
DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). <span>DNA bases pair up with each other, A with T and C with G, to form units called base pairs. Each base is also attached to a sugar molecule and a phosphate molecule. Together, a base, sugar, and phosphate are called a nucleotide. Nucleotides are arranged in two long strands that form a spiral called a double helix. The structure of the double helix is somewhat like a ladder, with the base pairs forming the ladder’s rungs and the sugar and phosphate molecules forming the vertical sidepieces of the ladder.</span>

What is the correct order for the hierarchy of biological organization from the least to the most complex? (concept 1.1)?
hjlf

Answer;

Molecule, organelle, cell, tissue, organ, organ system, organism, population, community, ecosystem.

Explanation;

-The biological levels of organization of living things arranged from the simplest to most complex are: organelle, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organisms, populations, communities, ecosystem, and biosphere.

-Organisms are highly organized, coordinated structures that consist of one or more cells. Even very simple, single-celled organisms are remarkably complex: inside each cell, atoms make up molecules; these in turn make up cell organelles and other cellular inclusions.

-In multicellular organisms, similar cells form tissues. Tissues, in turn, collaborate to create organs (body structures with a distinct function). Organs work together to form organ systems.

Recommend an action humans could take to help prevent the extinction of tropical organisms
Art [367]

Answer:

Stop habitat destruction

Explanation:

Cutting down and burning forests basically take away the shelter, hunting grounds, and overall habitat away from many species that use the trees as a form of shelter and protection. Removing their shelter, which could be their only form of protection causes many of these organisms to die, not to mention the plants that are necessary to keep the food chain balanced.
