Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
Complete question
which of the following properties of water are essential for life on Earth?
A) polarity
B) Cohesion & Adhesion
C) High heat capacity
D) All the above
Solution
Some essential properties of water are as follows –
a) Polarity
b) Solvent
c) High heat capacity - it is essential to maintain the temperature on earth. The water bodies are comparatively cooler than the temperature of earth
d) High heat of vaporization
e) Cohesion – It is essential for surface tension & capillary action
f) Adhesion – It is essential for surface tension & capillary action
g) Lower freezing density – Due to this reason, ice is lighter than water
Hence, option D is correct
Answer:
Within the extracellular fluid, the major cation is sodium and the major anion is chloride.
Chloride is a major contributor to the osmotic pressure gradient between the ICF and ECF, and plays an important role in maintaining proper hydration. It functions to balance cations in the ECF, maintaining the electrical neutrality of this fluid.
Chloride is by large the major anion in the extracellular fluid.
Its concentration in blood plasma is around 98.00–107.00 (mM), in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) around 118.00–132.00 (mM) and in urine around 110.00–250.00 (mM); while the concentrations of bicarbonate (HCO3-), the second most abundant anion in blood is 22.00–29.00 (mM).
Chloride is the predominant extracellular anion. Chloride is a major contributor to the osmotic pressure gradient between the ICF and ECF, and plays an important role in maintaining proper hydration. Chloride functions to balance cations in the ECF, maintaining the electrical neutrality of this fluid.
*ICF = intracellular fluid
ECF = extracellular fluid
