Answer:

Water in its liquid form has a boiling point temperature close to 100°C. As a result of the network of hydrogen bonding present between water molecules, a high input of energy is required to transform one gram of liquid water into water vapor, an energy requirement called the heat of vaporization.

Cohesion is responsible for the transport of the water column in plants. Adhesion is water attracted to other material.

Water has a greater surface tension than most other liquids because hydrogen bonds among surface water molecules resist stretching or breaking the surface.

Specific Heat is the amount of heat that must be absorbed or lost for one gram of a substance to change its temperature by 1*C.

Density is when hydrogen bonds in water expand as it warms and contracts as it cools. The hydrogen bonds keeps the molecules far enough a part to make ice have fewer molecules.

What type of energy is coming into the food web?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The vast majority of energy that exists in food webs originates from the sun and is converted (transformed) into chemical energy by the process of photosynthesis in plants. A small proportion of this chemical energy is transformed directly into heat when compounds are broken down during resp​iration in plants.

The vector, which is often a small, circular piece of dna that can exist outside the bacterial chromosome, is known as what?.
kramer

The vector, which is often a small, circular piece of dna that can exist outside the bacterial chromosome, is known as a plasmid.

Bacteria and certain other microscopic species contain plasmids, which are tiny circular DNA molecules. Physically distinct from chromosomal DNA, plasmids multiply on their own. They normally contain only a few genes, including some linked to antibiotic resistance, and they can spread from one cell to another.

Recombinant DNA techniques are used by scientists to splice the genes they want to research into a plasmid. The inserted gene is duplicated along with the plasmid when it duplicates itself. Molecular cloning, the process of creating DNA molecules and introducing them into a host cell, uses plasmid vectors as the means of delivering recombinant DNA into the host cell.

To know more about plasmids, refer to the following link:

How does the Sun heat the Earth?<br><br>Explain your answer in your own words.
iris [78.8K]

Explanation:

The sun heats the earth through radiation. Since there is no medium (like the gas in our atmosphere) in space, radiation is the primary way that heat travels in space. When the heat reaches the earth it warms the molecules of the atmosphere, and they warm other molecules and so on.
