Water is made up of hydrogen and oxygen. While underwater the water molecules glide and some stick to your body but they do not break off of your body until they are subjected to air which gives you the "wet" sensation.

So in other words if I am above water and spill some water on my arm then I am wet because it is interacting with the oxygen in the air. If my arm is underwater then it is not wet because it is constantly underwater and the water molecules are just gliding along my skin and it isn't until my arm is removed from the water that is becomes attached to my arm and makes it feel wet.

Water = wet when above water but when submerged in water then water doesn't necessarily equal wet.

What does hetrozygous and homozygous mean

natali 33 [55]

In genetics when an organism is heterozygous that means that it contains 2 different alleles for a specific gene, heterozygous refers to the genotype
Homozygous means the organism carries 2 of the same alleles.

For example there are two alleles for the gene of eye color
B- is the dominant allele for brown eyes
b- is the recessive allele for blue

So if a person's genotype is like Bb then he is heterozygous
but if he is like BB or bb then he is homozygous

A weather station predicts that warm, humid air will pass over much cooler land

allsm [11]

Answer:

This happens when the air has a lot of moisture and when the temperature is low (because in this way the water in the air condenses). So if a weather station predicts that warm humid air will pass over much cooler land, the precaution must be to use healights and drive slowly because it will probably be dense fog.

Why do you think the acceleration due to gravity is represented by a negative number?<br> 20 points

BigorU [14]

When you drop a ball, it is dropped DOWNWARDS so the number is represented by a negative number. If you toss the ball up it will be a positive number.

To answer your question:
When an object is dropped downwards there will be a negative number since the object is falling downwards.

In the polymerization of DNA, a phosphodiester bond is formed between a phosphate group of the nucleotide being added and which

valina [46]

Answer: B

Explanation:

During polymerization of nucleotides to form nucleic acids, the hydroxyl group on the phosphate group attaches to the 3’ carbon of a sugar of one nucleotide to form an ester bond to the phosphate of another nucleotide. The reaction forms a phosphodiester linkage and eliminates a water molecule.

The DNA strands generally runs from 5 prime to 3 prime direction.
