Answer:

The correct answer is option C, that is, capillary action and gravity.

Explanation:

Capillary action plays an essential role in moving the water around. It is illustrated as the movement of water inside the spaces of a porous substance because of the forces of cohesion, adhesion, and surface tension.  

Capillary action takes place as water is sticky, and due to the forces of cohesion and adhesion, the molecules of water are fascinated towards each other and stick to other components. Capillary action takes place when the adhesion to the walls is robust in comparison to the cohesive forces between the molecules of the liquid. However, capillary action is restricted by the forces that work against it, that is, surface tension and gravity.

Associations detected between measures of neighborhood environmental conditions and human microbiome diversity.
Musya8 [376]

Associations that were detected between measures of neighborhood environmental conditions and human microbiome diversity is shown below;

  • There was a regular, positive associations that between diversity and NDVI sd in regards to  mouth microbiome.
  • There was a constant, significant, and a negative associations that was said to exist between percent grassland and that of the diversity of the nose microbiome.

<h3>What are the other result?</h3>

Further result from the study of Amber L. Pearson<em> et al.,</em> (2020) reveal that the outcome for the mouth microbiome, she shows that a little effect of percent trees was seen on diversity and Clay loam soil was said to be negatively and positively associated or linked with rectum microbiome diversity, when liken to loam soil.

The study reveals that  no potential indicator taxon among NDVI quartiles was found and further research is needed.
