B. Water travels through vascular tissue from the roots to the leaves of a plant, moving against the force of gravity.

Adhesion refers to the attraction of water molecules to other molecules other than itself. This is opposed to cohesion (water to water molecules attraction). Adhesion and cohesion are the two properties of water that makes it possible for plants to pull water from the soil.

Roots absorb water from the soil via the root hairs. These water molecules ADHERE to the surfaces of vascular tissue called XYLEM and are transported from the roots to the leaves of a plant, moving against the force of gravity. This process occurs due to the ADHESIVE PROPERTY OF WATER.

Therefore, the ADHESIVE PROPERTY of water allows it to travel through vascular tissue (xylem) from the roots to the leaves of a plant.

The ____________ (size/color) of crystals formed depends on the speed of evaporation.
serg [7]

The right answer is the size.

Crystallization is the operation that consists, of a solution (solvent + solute) or a molten solid, to form a crystallized solid. The solute crystallizes in general in a predefined geometrical form (cubic, face-centered cubic, etc.), including or not solvent molecules (eg pure NA2SO4 or [Na2SO4, 10H2O]). The form or chemical formula of the crystals may depend on the crystallization temperature.

There are two ways of crystallization: The dry way and the wet way (in solution)

In crystallization in solution: the solute is initially in the liquid phase in a solvent. It is crystallized (solidification ordered according to a regular structure) within the solution either by solvent evaporation, or by cooling the solution, or both.

Which statement describes potassium-argon dating?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer: Potassium-40 decays into argon gas over time.

Explanation: Potassium-argon dating is a dating method used to determine the age of sedimentary rocks by comparing the proportion of K-40 to Ar-40 in a sample of rock, and knowing the decay rate of K-40.

Potassium-40 undergoes decay following first order kinetics as given below:

_{19}^{40}\textrm{K}\rightarrow _{18}^{40}\textrm{Ar}+_{0}^1e

Natalija [7]

Answer:

The DNA of the baby shares the DNA of both father and mother, and hence a cross link between an O type mother (Taylor) and an AB type father (Tyler) will produce children with blood groups A and B. It will be impossible to give birth to a child with blood group O.
