Water molecules are attracted to the molecules in the wall of the glass container

1 answer:

3 0

That's because both H2O molecules and 'glass molecules', more precisely an enormous lattice of silica oxide, are polar. The surface of the glass consists of unsaturated oxygen atoms which can form H- bonding with the water molecules, giving that U shape you are seeing when you put water in a narrow cylinder.

Answer:

Cell–cell interaction

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described it can be said that the developmental process that has most likely been affected are known as Cell–cell interaction. These are the direct interactions that exist between cell surfaces that allow them to communicate with one another. Doing so by receiving signals and initiating transduction pathways. Therefore since these are functions that have been disrupted it's safe to say that the Cell-cell interaction has been affected.

Dimas [21]

Cells lining the small intestine are specialized for absorption of nutrients. their plasma membrane has microvillus (plural: microvilli) which increase cell surface area. These are cellular membranes that are microscopic in nature that increases the surface area of the cell for diffusion and minimize increase in volume.

anygoal [31]

Answer:

d. A smaller body size

Explanation:

The smaller a body size is the larger the body surface area is. Larger body surface area would allow for increase in lost of more excess heat to the environment.

Therefore, hypothetically, one of the obvious adaptation that would be evolved by the rat population that was moved from their previous cold northern tundra climate to a desert environment is a smaller body size. This would enable them in cooling off and preventing over-heating.
