Biology

Answer:

Water has a high Cohesion because of Hydrogen bonding. This is important as transport of water in the Xylem in plants relies on water being pulled up. Cohesion also gives the water a high surface tension, allowing small organisms, such as Pond Skaters, to walk along it.

Explanation:

Water molecules forming hydrogen bonds with one another. The partial negative charge on the O of one molecule can form a hydrogen bond with the partial positive charge on the hydrogens of other molecules. Water molecules are also attracted to other polar molecules and to ions.

Plants obtain the hydrogen they need from water molecules. Don't try to feed your plant hydrogen gas -- your plant wouldn't know what to do with it if you did. As long as they have water, plants can readily obtain all the hydrogen they need. :)

Does medical assistance safeguard or impede the birth process?
Georgia [21]
Medical assistance safeguards the process of birth. The process of giving birth poses serious risk to both mother and child. There are a number of complications that can occur during the process that can cause the death of both mother and infant.
Medical assistance reduces the risk and ensures a safe delivery by being on hand in the event that a complication may arise. The infant mortality rate and the number of mothers who die in childbirth have been significantly reduced because of medical assistance.
