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:
Their cell walls are composed of very different biochemicals.
Explanation:
Biological classification is important to classify the organisms on the basis of their similarities and differences between them. Linnaeus is known as the father of biological classification.
Cellwall plays an important role in the maintenance of structure and function of the organisms. The composition of the cell wall of fungi, plants and prokaryotes are quite different. Plants cell wall made of cellulose, fungi has chitin in its cell wall and prokaryotes has different layers of cell wall.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
