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! :)

A family has two children. M represents male, and F represents female.What is the sample space for the gender of the children?
melamori03 [73]

Answer: There are four (4) possible outcomes; {FM, FF, MM, MF}

Explanation: Sample space can be defined as the set of all possible outcomes or results of an experiment or random trial. The size of the outcomes constitutes the number of elements present in the space and this is called Sample size.

Since the question involves two children, there are four possible outcomes for the gender. The two children of the family could be in the following formations;

1. Female - Male

2. Female - Female

3. Male - Male

4. Male - Female

Hence, the sample space will be {FM, FF, MM, MF}

const2013 [10]

They are releasing energy from organic molecules through aerobic respiration. In cell respiration, you are releasing energy, and in this case you are releasing energy from organic molecules. Because they are a single-celled organism using oxygen and releasing carbon, the process being used is aerobic respiration.
