When ice forms, one water molecule's hydrogen atoms form weak hydrogen bonds with the tops of the oxygen atoms of two other water molecules. Lining up the water molecules in this pattern takes up more space than randomly arranging them.
<h3>What is polarity?</h3>
A physical property of compounds that connects other physical properties like melting and boiling points, solubility, and intermolecular interactions between molecules is referred to as polarity.
When ice forms, one water molecule's hydrogen atoms form weak hydrogen bonds with the tops of the oxygen atoms of two other water molecules.
Lining up the water molecules in this pattern takes up more space than randomly arranging them.
When water freezes, the water molecules slow down enough that their attractions arrange them into fixed positions. Water molecules freeze in a hexagonal pattern, with molecules further apart than when the water was liquid.
Thus, because of this frozen water take on the pattern it does.

Answer:
Nitrogen cycle works through various stages like, nitrogen fixation, nitrification, assimilation, ammonification, denitrification etc. It is a building block for protein and DNA
Explanation:
Nitrogen is an element abundantly found in the atmosphere, also its building block for proteins as well as nucleic acid i.e. DNA formation. In nitrogen cycle , the nitrogen is being prepared from inert nitrogen. The nitrogen cycle has several processes like nitrogen fixation, in this the inert nitrogen is being converted to organic nitrogen with the help of certain micro-organism.
Nitrification, plants cannot absorb directly nitrogen so bacteria help the plants to convert the nitrogen into ammonia form in this stage. Assimilation, another stage in which plants starts absorbing various forms of nitrogen from the soil.i.e. nitrate, nitrite and ammonium. Ammonification, here plants and animals have nitrogen in there body after death various microbes help in decomposition in this stage. Denitrification, in this stage the return back of nitrogen takes place.
The correct answer is: Insulation
I hoped that helped :)
Assuming you mean living matter
All living matter is produced by other living matter
