Water molecules are polar, having partially positive and partially negative ends.
Korvikt [17]4 years ago
3 0

Answer: Water molecules are polar, having partially positive and partially negative ends.

Explanation:

The water molecules are polar which allows them to react and dissolve various molecules of other substance in them. The water molecule shows the cohesive and adhesive relationship because of this polarity. The water molecules attract the other water molecules by cohesive forces facilitated by the hydrogen bonding. The water molecules when attract the molecules of the other substances by the adhesive forces facilitated by the hydrogen bonding.

harkovskaia [24]

Meta-population is the patchiness of population in space and its role is dynamic, population insatiability, coexistence of species, the maintenance of diversity.

Metapopulation is colonization and extinction dynamics. The variable of prime concern is the proportion.As the population largest approaches the environment carrying resources become more scare and growth rate slows.

The m maxima carrying number of species in environment can support indefinitely .A group of spatially separated population of similar organism which interact at some levels.It s population in which multiple populations as butterflies and cool reef fishes.Humans are evolved from multiple interconnected spread out across Africa in large meta-population.

Describe a chemical and physical change with an example for each
Bad White [126]
A chemical change is a change in which the composition of the matter is changed at the molecular level, most chemical changes are not easily irreversible, for example, an egg being cooked, the egg changes from its liquid like state to a solid, and it is not possible to revert it back to its original change. The egg itself is changed in this case.
A physical change on the other hand however, is only changing the substance of a matter, not its composition, this is usually easily reversible. For example, water turning into ice, the water's substance changed from its liquid state to its solid state, it is still water, and it can easily be turned back into water by heating it.

Sorry for the long explanation,
Hope this helps!

Andrew is lactose intolerant. what happens to water movement in the presence of the double sugar, lactose, which remains in the
Juli2301 [7.4K]
When someone is lactose intolerant, it means its intestine cannot absorb lactose, which will stay in the lumen and be consumed by intestinal bacteria and produced gases, that's why intolerant lactose people have flatulence and abdominal pain while eating food with lactose in it.
Let's go back to the question, before being consumed, lactose in the lumen intestine will attract water from the enterocytes to its side by oncotic pressure.

Do not confound oncotic pressure (which concerns macromolecules like sugar or proteins) and osmotic pressure (which concern micromolecules like small ions (sodium potassium and chloride...)).
