How does high heat of vaporization affect living organisms?

The heat of vaporization refers to the amount of energy necessary to add to a substance in order to convert the substance from liquid to gas. Water has a high heat of vaporization measuring 40.65 kJ/mol. This means that a lot of energy must be put into it before it evaporates. As a result, humans are able to maintain their body temperature since the human body is mostly made up of water. Moreover, it keeps the Earth's climate at a steady temperature as well. Thus, living organisms are able to live in an environment that does not rapidly change in temperature as a result of changes in their immediate surroundings.

Answer:

The water has a high heat of vaporisation, this means that requires more energy that other solutions to evaporate. Now, water is a basic element that's involved in everything, one of the reason to human lives are possible in Earth is for this.

So, in this high heat vaporisation process, another one is involved and really crucial to our bodies, because when water evaporates, the surface beneath gets cooler, this is called <em>evaporative cooling, </em>and that is one of the most important things that affect organisms, <em>temperature regulation.</em>

Answer: the rate of pollination of flower, in a field next to a pond with no fish, will DECREASE.

Explanation:

POLLINATION is defined as the process by which flowering plants, through the aid of external agents such as insects,wind, water and other animals, are able to transfer pollen grains from an anther to a receptive stigma. Insects are the most common pollinators. They visit flowers to obtain nectar and pollen as source of food. Flowers use various features, such as colour and scent, to attract and guide insects to the food source within them. In the process of reaching their source of food, insects bring about pollination.

From the study conducted by scientist in Florida, eight(8) ponds where subjected to the the study. The first four (4) ponds had species of fishes that fed on dragonflies and dragonfly larvae, hence the reason for a decrease in the population of the dragon flies in the area around it. While the remaining four (4) ponds had NO fish and the area around it is populated with dragonflies and dragonfly larvae. This is so because of the absence of fish.

It was then noted that the dragon lies fed of the insect pollinators such as the bees and butterflies. Since these dragonflies and its larvae are abundant in the field which is close to the pond with no fish, they will grossly depend on the insect pollinators as their source of food thereby decreasing the rate of pollination in the field next to the pond with no fish.

A substance that activates plasminogen might be useful to:
ololo11 [35]

Answer: Option A.

Cause clot dissolution to proceed faster.

Explanation:

Plasminogen activator is a substance that activates plasminogen to plasmin. Plasminogen activator is a serine proteases which catalyze the activation of plasminogen. The damaged blood tissue releases tissue plasminogen. The plasmin is important to break fibrin polymers that is formed during clotting of the blood. Increased plasminogen levels cause blood clots to dissolve faster.
