The correct answer is option D) Water is polar and the positive and negative ends of the molecule attract each other.

The water is a polar molecule, and forms a hydrogen bonding with the other water molecule. In the liquid state, the molecules of the water is in random motion, and the bond between the water molecules are continuously formed and deformed.

In the ice, the hydrogen bond between the water molecules become more stable, due to this, the molecules arrange themselves in a hexagonal pattern. Due to this arrangement, the allover space occupied is expanded. Hence, the ice is expanded than liquid water.

What is it important that carbon is recycled?
marshall27 [118]
It's not so important that it be recycled ... after all, there's almost a limitless supply,
and there's no danger of ever running out of it.

What's important is to keep carbon out of the atmosphere.  In order to do that, we
need to reduce the amount of it that's released during so many of the processes
that we've been doing on a huge scale for the past 200 years, and invent ways
to capture the carbon that we DO continue to release, before it gets into the
atmosphere.

The part of the eye that prevent light from reflecting internally and is heavily vascularized to deliver blood to the retina:___
Ne4ueva [31]

The part of the eye that prevent light from reflecting internally and is heavily vascularized to deliver blood to the retina: choroid.

<h3>What is choroid?</h3>

The choroid is highly vascularized to provide blood to the retina and contains dark pigmentation to stop light from reflecting inside. Anteriorly, the choroid, ciliary body, and iris are all joined.. The ciliary body muscles regulate the lens's thickness. The iris acts as a diaphragm, changing the pupil's aperture at its center. This regulates how much light is allowed to enter the retina. In strong light, the iris' muscle fibers constrict the pupil to accommodate close vision; in low light, they enlarge it to accommodate far vision. Each individual's iris is a different color.
