Answer:

Higher heat of evaporation required to break hydrogen bonds

Explanation:

Water molecules are joined together by intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Evaporation of liquid water into water vapor requires extra energy to break these hydrogen bonds to separate the water molecules from each other.

Since a higher heat of evaporation is required, the water molecules absorb the heat from the skin surface or leaf surfaces during perspiration and transpiration respectively. This leaves the cooler skin and leaf surfaces behind. Therefore, the presence of intermolecular hydrogen bonds and the need for extra energy to evaporation water allow it to exhibit a cooling effect.

Georgia [21]

Answer:

Answer is A. not produce the protein being studied.

Explanation:

The process of generating, creating or replicating a copy of a cell or an organism, which is genetically identical , is called cloning.

There are three types of cloning, these are

1. gene cloning... which is the process of replicating copies of genes.

2. reproductive cloning is the process of generating copies of whole organism.

3. therapeutic cloning... this process is always used when the aim is at creating or generating tissues in replacing diseased or injured tissue by producing embryonic stem cells for experiment.

Why is water molecule called polar
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Since oxygen has a higher electronegativity than hydrogen, the electrons of the molecule tend to group closer to the oxygen than to the hydrogen atoms. as well as , water is said to be a "polar" molecule, which means that there is an uneven distribution of electron density.

Two diseases resulting from hyperfunction of the pituitary gland are:
Snezhnost [94]
Gigantism and acromegaly are the two diseases resulting from hyper function of the pituitary gland. Gigantism and acromegaly are conditions that are nearly always due to a pituitary adenoma that is because of excessive secretion of a growth hormone called hypersomatotropism. <span>If GH hypersecretion begins in childhood, before closure of the epiphyses pituitary gigantism occurs. It is a rare condition where skeletal growth velocity and ultimate stature are increased, but little bony deformity occurs. However, soft-tissue swelling occurs, and the peripheral nerves are enlarged. Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and deferred puberty is also normally present, resulting in a eunuchoid habitus. While Acromegaly occurs after the growth plate cartilage fuses in adulthood, it is the same disorder of IGF-I excess but in acromegaly, an unadorned disease that morbidity and mortality rates are high because its often diagnosed late, where the disease is associated with cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and respiratory disorders and malignancies. </span>
