Answer:
The correct model is D.
Note: The first attachment below shows the different models. The second attachment shows the correct structural model of the water molecule.
Explanation:
A water molecule is composed of one atom of oxygen and two atoms of hydrogen.
A water molecule is polar, i.e. it contains positively and negatively opposite ends. The polar nature of the water molecule is due to strong electronegativity of oxygen which results in an uneven sharing of the bonding electrons between oxygen and hydrogen. The oxygen atom attracts the shared electrons more to itself, thereby, it acquires a partial negative charge, while the hydrogen atoms acquire a partial positive charge.
The bond angle between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms is approximately 105°. Therefore, from the first attachment below, the correct model for the water molecule is D.
Answer: B. Water breaks down into oxygen molecules for respiration.
Water is the required for photosynthesis, a process by which plants (terrestrial and aquatic) makes their food by utilizing water as a reactant to produce oxygen and glucose as product. The glucose act as a source of energy for conducting various metabolic processes in plants but oxygen is released in the air.
This oxygen is necessary for terrestrial and aquatic animals for respiration. Therefore, water breaks down into oxygen by the process of photosynthesis, hence water plays important role in respiration in living beings.
