A hormone is a molecule that functions as a chemical signal. A hormone is a chemical released by a cell or a gland in one part of the body that sends out messages that affect cells in other parts of the organism. Endocrine hormone molecules are secreted (released) directly into the bloodstream. !
Answer:
enable capillarity
Explanation:
It is well known that water tends to adhere to the walls of the vessel in which it is contained. This is due to the force of adhesion which is defined as the force of attraction between unlike molecules. Cohesion is defined as the force of attraction between like molecules. In the case of a plant, cohesion of water molecules in the xylem vessels prevents the water column from breaking. The forces of adhesion, surface tension and cohesion are the basis of capillarity,that is, the rise of liquids in capillary tubes.
Salmon are predators to shrimp.
This makes sense because a predator is an animal that hunts another animal to survive. Since salmon feed on shrimp, they must be a predator.
Additionally, we can eliminate the other possibilities by process of elimination:
-B is incorrect as a parasite is an organism that lives inside of another organism. Since salmon do not live inside of shrimp, this doesn't make sense.
-C is incorrect because a host is an organism that a parasite lives inside of. Since shrimp do not live inside of salmon, this also can be removed.
-D is incorrect because prey is an animal that is eaten by another animal. Since shrimp to not eat salmon, this can also be eliminated.
Therefore, A is our answer.
Hope this helps! :)
