Answer: The capillary action of water can be defined as the property of water by which it travels through the tube in upward direction which is opposite the gravity.

Explanation: This property of water is due to adhesion, cohesion and surface tension of water which allows it to climb through the tube. This property allows the plants to uptake water from the soil.

The water also moves against the gravity in the body of plants and animals with the help of capillary action.

Answer:

Look Below

Explanation:

Capillary action is adhesion of water. In plants, capillary action allows water to move from the roots to leaves. In animals, capillary action plays a role in respiration where oxygen-poor blood oxygenates in the capillaries.

Why is fossil fuel considered a nonrenewable energy source?​
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

\boxed {\tt Takes \ many \ years \ to \ replenish}

Explanation:

A nonrenewable is a resource that cannot quickly be regenerated. A nonrenewable resource will eventually run out, and it cannot be remade for many years.

For example, <u>fossil fuel </u>is formed from fossils after millions of years of heat and pressure turn them into fuel. Since they take many years to create, they are a <em>nonrenewable energy source.</em>

The peaks are there where the centre of the concentric circles lie. (Not circles exactly)

You can count a total 4 of them.

So there are a total of 4 peaks

See the attachment. I have marked them with a cross.

How many moles of cesium xenon heptafloride can be produced from the reaction 12 mol cesium Floride with 14 mol xenon hexaflorid
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

12 moles of cesium xenon heptafluoride

Explanation:

The reaction of cesium fluoride with xenon hexafluoride is CeF + XeF6 -> CeXeF7 and the reaction is balanced as written. So the mole ratio is 1:1:1. We are given 12 moles of CeF and 14 moles of XeF6 are reacting, but after the 12 moles of CeF react completely, the reaction will stop as we have run out of one of our reactants. So only 12 moles of CeXeF7 will be produced.
