The water molecule has the ability to form hydrogen bonds, between atoms of oxygen and hydrogen of different molecules (they can also be formed between atoms of hydrogen, phosphorus, and nitrogen, but in the case of water we refer only to hydrogen and oxygen). When this phenomenon occurs between molecules of the same species (one molecule of H2O with another molecule of H2O), it is called cohesion, which is the attraction that molecules have for others of the same type. In the case of water, cohesion occurs thanks to hydrogen bonds, and this union is very strong and difficult to break.

9- The results of this type of DNA analysis are often used to help

juin [17]

Answer:

B) if two species are closely related.

Explanation:

DNA analysis is used to determine the relationship between two species in order to check their relations with each other because DNA molecules has all the information about the organisms. If there is more similarities between two organisms so they are more closely related to each other while on the other hand, if there is no similarities between two species so we can say that there is no relationship exists between two organisms or species. All this discussion describes the usefulness of DNA analysis.

What is phosphorus used in the soil for

Otrada [13]

Phosphorus is, therefore important in cell division and development of new tissue.
It is also associated with complex energy transformations in the plant. Adding phosphorus to soil low in available phosphorus promotes root growth and winter hardiness, stimulates tillering, and often hastens maturity.

Hopefully this helps :)
