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.

An organism that reproduces sexually has a diploid number of 30. How many
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Gamete of organism has a haploid number of chromosomes.

2n = 30

n = 15

A diploid cell containing 30 chromosomes will result in 15 chromosomes in each of the 4 daughter cells after meiosis occurs.

After first nuclear and cellular division (Meiosis I), each daughter cell will only have 15 chromosomes as homologous chromosomes are broken apart at Anaphase I of meiosis I. Chromosomal number is halved. After the second nuclear and cellular division (Meiosis II), each daughter cell will also have 15 chromosomes. This time, instead of the chromosomal number being halved, their chromosomal contents are halved. Sister chromatids are separated at Anaphase II of Meiosis II, resulting in daughter chromosomes each.
