frez [133]4 years ago

Capillary action is a combination of the adhesive and cohesive properties of water in which the water is able to move up a small tube against the pull of gravity. Therefore, the uptake of food and water is due to capillary action.

Change in climate has nothing to do with adhesion and cohesion in water. Some insects can walk on water due to surface tension, which is due to cohesion. However, there is no movement upward through a tube with surface tension, and so it is not an example of capillary action.

Hope this helps! :)

4. Which of the three major types of membrane receptors is often used by bacteria to cause infections?
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

on channel-linked receptors, G-protein-linked receptors, and enzyme-linked receptors.

The ability of cells to communicate through chemical signals originated in single cells and was essential for the evolution of multicellular organisms. In multicellular organisms, cells send and receive chemical messages constantly to coordinate the actions of distant organs, tissues, and cells. Cells can receive a message, transfer the information across the plasma membrane, and then produce changes within the cell in response to the message. Single-celled organisms, like yeast and bacteria, communicate with each other to aid in mating and coordination. Cellular communication has developed as a means to communicate with the environment, produce biological changes, and, if necessary, ensure survival.
