Adhesion, cohesion and capillary action enable water to go from the roots to the top of the tree due to its specific property.

<h3>How adhesion cohesion and capillary action move water to the top?</h3>

Capillary action helps to bring water to the upper parts from the roots but to a small distance due to strong gravity. In order to get water up to all the branches and leaves, the forces of adhesion and cohesion work together in the plant's xylem to move water to the upper body.

So we can conclude that adhesion, cohesion and capillary action enable water to go from the roots to the top of the tree due to its specific property.

The interplay of the force is adhesion and cohesion helps to move the water up the roots to the top of the tree.

<h3>How does water move up a tree?</h3>

We know that water is a polar molecule hence the dipole dipole interaction tends to make the molecules of water to coalesce together. This is the force of cohesion.

The force of adhesion binds the water molecule to other surfaces hence it cam interact with the xylem cells. Capillary action is the process that enable the water to enter the roots.

Thus the interplay of the force is adhesion and cohesion helps to move the water up the roots to the top of the tree.

Which of the following best explains a characteristic that differentiates Fungi from Plants?
NikAS [45]
<span>The answer is C because fungi use decomposition to get nutrition, while plants produce their own nutrients, making them autotrophs. Answer choice A is incorrect because fungi cells do have cell walls, even though they contain chitin, which isn't present in the cell walls of plants. Answer choice B is incorrect because while they do form colonies, most fungi are multicellular. Answer choice D is incorrect because plants are also able to reproduce both sexually and asexually.</span>

Which group of organic compounds stores genetic information?
vaieri [72.5K]
I got D, C, A, B, C, B, D, C. 

C (proteins) instead of D (nucleic acids) because if you look at a nucleic acid structure, you'll see that sulfur is not found in it. Sulfur is found in two amino acids (methionine and cysteine), which means it could be found in proteins since amino acids build proteins

Describe how climate would be influenced if:
madam [21]
  1. The rate of energy coming from the Sun changes slightly day to day. .It has been suggested that changes in solar output might affect our climate—both directly, by changing the rate of solar heating of the Earth and atmosphere, and indirectly, by changing cloud forming processes.
  2. The axial tilt angle affects climate largely by determining which parts of the earth get more sunlight during different stages of the year Likewise, during winter for the northern hemisphere, there would be fewer hours of daylight because the northern hemisphere would essentially be pointed away from the sun.
  3. If an asteroid were to strike land or a shallow body of water, it would eject an enormous amount of dust, ash, and other material into the atmosphere, blocking the radiation from the Sun. This would cause the global temperature to decrease drastically.
  4. The Sun's irradiance has its greatest effect on Earth's upper atmosphere, while the lower atmosphere insulates Earth from the increased heat. If the Sun were driving Earth's warming, one would expect to see that upper atmosphere getting increasingly hot.\

Which organelle does the skeletal system connect to and why?
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Muscles connect to your skeleton and they contract and move the skeleton along. Your skeletal system is made up of cartilage and calcified bone that work together. They help the process of movement happen in a smoother manner. The calcified bones of your skeleton also work with the circulatory system.
