Answer:

C.) living and nonliving things can float in liquid water

Explanation:

hydrogen bond reffers to as the electromagnetic attraction between polar molecules.

In hydrogen bond, larger atoms are bounded together, atoms like oxygen or nitrogen. It does not involve the sharing of electrons like that of covalent bond but involves attraction between the positive and negative poles of charged atoms.

The biological effect of the hydrogen bonding between molecules of water is that living and non- living can float in liquid water which is possible as a result of the Properties by hydrogen bond such as cohesion, adhesion, high specific heat and surface tension, which by virtue of Hydrogen bonds, the water molecules are held together.

Hydrogen-bond formation change the structure of the molecules involved electronically.Hydrogen bonding is very crucial bond in alot of chemical processes around us.It is of great influence for solvent capabilities of water which makes water to be unique solvent.

The complementary strands of DNA were able to be held together by the influence of Hydrogen bonds which is am responsible for determination of the three-dimensional structure of folded proteins

Hihi!

There are seven characteristics of living things: movement, breathing or respiration, excretion, growth, sensitivity, and reproduction! But sadly as for non-living things they lack most of these things. Their characteristics are that they lack the capability for growth, reproduction, respiration, metabolism, and movement. They also cannot respond to a stimuli and they also cannot evolve and adapt to their environment. Isn't that kind of sad?

I hope I helped!

A good hypothesis is an If, Than statement. I'm not sure about the scientific question. I do believe it is something that can be answerable.

How does the Sun heat the Earth? Explain your answer in your own words.

iris [78.8K]

Explanation:

The sun heats the earth through radiation. Since there is no medium (like the gas in our atmosphere) in space, radiation is the primary way that heat travels in space. When the heat reaches the earth it warms the molecules of the atmosphere, and they warm other molecules and so on.
