Capillary action:

Biology
1 answer:
Law Incorporation [45]3 years ago
4 0

all of the above

Explanation:

Capillary action is the movement of water up a narrow tube or tiny space. This occurs when the adhesion of water to the particles around is greater than cohesion between them.

Adhesion is the force of attraction between two different particles.

Cohesion is the attractive forces between the same particles.

  • In capillary action, water is able to rise against the force of gravity pulling it to the center.
  • This owes much to the attraction between water and the tiny space in pores pulling it upward.
  • Roots obtain their water by capillary action.
  • Within the tiny pores, water moves upward by adhesion.

olganol [36]
The environmental effects of harmful practices on private property are not essentially restricted to private property, it can also affect public property. Water polluted on private property might stream down into a local river or an aquifer used for public purposes like drinking water or for recreational parks (swimming pools). Landowners who slaughter travelling animals on their property are putting an end to creatures that are part of a bigger ecosystem; the loss of these animals will affect all the ecosystems along the migration route.
