The water molecule is composed of two atoms of hydrogen and one of oxygen. Hydrogen and oxygen have very different electronegativities: oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen, oxygen can attract more shared electrons in a covalent bond. When a water molecule is very close to other water molecules, specific interactions between a hydrogen in a molecule and the oxygen in the nearby molecule are established, forming a very strong type of union known as a hydrogen bond. This makes water have different qualities, such as high solvent capacity, high specific heat, high heat of vaporization, great cohesion and adhesion.

Which of the following processes includes all the others?
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Passive transport.

Explanation:

The transport of molecules across the plasma membrane can occur by the two process- active transport and passive transport. No amount of energy is required during the active transport.

Passive transport includes the diffusion and osmosis. Both the diffusion and osmosis do not require energy and the molecules move down from the region of higher concentration towards the region of lower concentration. Small molecules, ions and proteins can go through the passive transport.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c).
