Water is an example of a liquid.

Further explanation:

Matters are classified into three forms based on their physical state, namely solid, liquid and gas. Solids are the substance that has fixed volume and shape. The liquid is the substance that can change its shape. Gas is the substance that does not have fixed volume and shape.

The states of matters are:

Solid:

The molecules of the solid-state are closely held with each other due to which it has a definite and fixed shape. The force that holds them together is strong enough that it occurs in crystalline form. It can only convert its shape or form under pressure or force. For example, ice is converted to water though a melting point.

Liquid:

The molecules of the liquid are not as close to each other as in solid-state due to which it does not have a definite shape. It can acquire the shape of the molecule due to the larger shape between the molecules. It has a definite volume that does not change at room temperature. It can be changed to another form under a required temperature such as it can be transformed into gaseous form under constant pressure. The examples of liquid state are water and oil.

Gases:

The molecules of the gas are either posses a weak bond or do not have any bond. Due to which they are freely movable and has a larger shape between each other. It does not have a definite shape and volume. The examples of gases are oxygen, nitrogen, and air.

Answer: The correct answer is liquid.

Explanation:

Liquid, gas and solid are the states of the matter.

Solid: In the solid, the inter molecular force of attraction is strongest. The particles are more tightly packed in this in comparison to liquid and gas. It has definite shape and volume. For example, iron.

Gas: In the solid, the inter molecular force of attraction is very less. The particles are not tightly packed in this in comparison to solid and liquid. For example, hydrogen gas.

Liquid: In the liquid, the inter molecular force of attraction is not very strong. The particles are loosely packed. It has no definite shape but has definite volume. For example, water.

Therefore, water is an example of a liquid.

Blood tests can be used to check a person’s blood glucose and hormone levels. The tabular column given below shows the result of
KiRa [710]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

a) From the table, the glucose level of person 1 (5.4) was less than the glucose level of person 2 (5.6) after 12 hours of fasting. The glucose level of person 1  falls within the normal fasting blood sugar range (3.9 to 5.6 mmol/L) while that of person 2 was borderline higher than normal.  

b) Also from the table, the glucose level of person 3 (12.1) was greater than that of person 1 (6.4) when the glucose levels were measured 2 hours after drinking 75 g glucose. Normal after-meal sugar level ranges between 6 and 10.9 mmol/L. Hence, person 3 appears to be diabetic while person 1 seems normal.

c) The hormone that person 3 cannot produce is insulin.

<em>Insulin helps lower blood sugar levels when necessary by signalling the liver to convert the excess sugar to glycogen which is then stored in the body. When the blood sugar falls below the normal range, another enzyme, glucagon, signals the liver to convert the glycogen back to sugar to compensate for the decrease. </em>

Why are forest considered biodiversity hotspots ?
olga2289 [7]

First of all, what is a hotspot?

A hotspot, is a place with a hotter temperature in relation to its surroundings.

So, when we think of "biodiversity hotspot", what exactly does that mean?

It's a place with a higher biodiversity in relation to its surroundings, but also with more concentration of species.


So, that's why forests are considered a biodiversity hotspot. If you want some visual content, try finding a geographical map of Africa. In some desert regions you'll see green spots (some really big). These are forests. The interesting thing about them, is when you search their biodiversity, you'll see what a biodiversity hotspot looks like
