Answer:
The characteristic of water that makes this liquid stick to the side of a test tube is called capillarity (Claim).
Explanation:
Water (H₂O) is a polar molecule with the ability to generate van der Waals forces, which is explained by the 4 hydrogen bonds it forms to bind to other substances. The consequence of the forces of the molecular bonds are four properties of H₂O, including surface tension, cohesion, adhesion and capillarity.
- <u>Claim</u>: The characteristic of water that makes this liquid stick to the side of a test tube is called capillarity.
- <u>Evidence</u>: Cohesion and adhesion of water are properties that come from the forces of the molecular bonds of water, and whose effect is the ability of water to wet surfaces and adhere to a tube that contains it, the latter due to capillarity. Capillarity also allows water to rise through the roots and stems of plants, through their thin vascular ducts.
- <u>Reasoning</u>: <u>cohesion</u> in water depends on the force of attraction between H₂O molecules, <u>adhesion</u> is the capacity of H₂O molecules to join other different molecules and —together with <u>surface tension</u>— make H₂O molecules close to the walls of a glass tube adhere to it, which represents capillarity.
The effect of capillarity is more evident when the test tube is of a smaller diameter, although capillarity and adhesion to its walls always exist, and to a greater degree than any other substance.
Answer:
there is a good chance the population of mice will die off or the mice will migrate to a new area.
Explanation:
with there being so many mice and limited food mice will beging to die from starvation. mice might also migrated to a new area to find new food. this could cause competition for food in that new area too.

Answer:
all 20
Explanation:
It is impossible to know how many individuals will have the disease at the end without knowing other factors such as the condition where the subjects are being held, trial specifications and safety measures, etc. Based on the information provided, the best prediction that can be made is that all 20 subjects will have the disease. This is because since none of them are immune the disease will spread between the patients/subjects through contact or testing equipment.
