Water has special characteristics because of the nature of hydrogen bonds what are they?

Biology
1 answer:
Amanda [17]4 years ago

Water has special characteristics because liquid water is denser than ice and ice floats on top of liquid water​.

Answer: Option A & D

<u>Explanation:</u>

A water molecule is formed by the covalent bonding between two atoms of Hydrogen atom with one atom of Oxygen. In water, the Hydrogen bonds are the one that keeps the water molecule intact.  

When the water molecule freezes the bonding becomes weak as they are separated and set apart which makes the liquid water denser than ice. Normally a substance floats if it is less dense. Ice floats because it is less dense than water.

Describe what happens to the metabolic flux of glucose before and after eating breakfast in terms of glycogen and pyruvate level
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The maintenance of glucose metabolism of body is important for the organism. Before eating breakfast the level of glucose is low so the level of pyruvate and glycogen breakdown occurs to increase the blood glucose level. After eating breakfast, the glucose level is high in the body that causes the increase storage of glycogen to maintain the extra blood glucose level. The amount of pyruvate also changes and decrease as the glycogen stores in the body.

The two main hormone that plays an important role in blood glucose level are glucagon and insulin. The insulin is released in case of high blood glucose level and glucagon is secreted in case of low blood glucose levels.

AleksAgata [21]
If untreated sewage gets into rivers, microorganisms decompose it. They use oxygen from the water for aerobic respiration. As a result there is less oxygen dissolved in water, so aquatic organisms such as fish and insects may be unable to survive.
