Bone contains living cells and organic matter such as collagen, protein, and polysaccharides. However, much of the volume of bon

e is made up of minerals, which may comprise as much as 65% of bone mass. Calcium and phosphate are the most common minerals, with calcium in the form of hydroxyapatite and calcium carbonate. Magnesium, hydroxide, fluoride and sulfate may also be present. Where do you think the body gets the needed minerals?

In what ways does the "viscosity" of H₂O — as a property of H₂O — beneficial to life on Earth? {No answer choices given. WILL CO
butalik [34]

The viscosity of water is the thickness of water (it might also be considered the stickiness when talking about other fluids). Water has many properties, and the viscosity of water influences in many of them. We can take the surface tension of a liquid as an example. The more viscous a substance is, higher will the surface tension be and vice versa since there will be a higher and lower attraction between molecules respectively.


→ The surface tension of water is something really important since it contributes in many ways to the environment and if you think about it, if the water was a little less viscous, there wouldn't be water since the viscosity of water makes it resistant to evaporation to a certain degree.
