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 is your stance on genetically modified foods? Are you for or against them?
Vinvika [58]
GMOs have a ton of pros and cons, so it's hard to say. Although, I personally would like to avoid them. With the amount of people who have gone gluten free, there's more of a reason for it than being a hipster or a yuppie. Because the demand for wheat is so high, we had to genetically modify it. Although this increased its abundance, a lot of humans' digestive systems haven't evolved with it. That is the reason why it makes so many people sick, because they cant digest it. If the rate at which GMOs are being created and nourished continues, it's likely our digestive systems will reject it, possibly causing famine due to the inability to eat our own food.<span />

Which answer choice does not contain at least one cellular process inhibited by antibiotics?
USPshnik [31]
<span>Antibiotics work by selectively targeting the reproduction or growth of specific bacteria cells and by not attacking human DNA. Antibiotics do not, or should not, target and affect human DNA gyrases, although they should target the specific bacteria growth. The host, (human) DNA needs to remain unharmed while the bacteria does not replicate.</span>
