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. :)

What facts did Redi's, Spallanzani's, and Pasteur's experiments establish? What broader scientific understanding about life did
miss Akunina [59]
These scientists all carried out experiments in accordance with the basic biological principle that life comes from pre-existing life. They investigated the theory of spontaneous generation and proved that life comes from life.

This also demonstrates that science is a way of knowing because they used what they saw in these experiments in other situations as well. They became able to do this only because they knew about this information and they got to know this information through science.

Describe how the structures of proteins differ from the structures of carbohydrates
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Both are considered macromolecules. I'll explain below

Explanation:

Proteins are like a huge Lego construction. Each individual piece gets pieced together to make a larger "thing" - Death Star, House, etc. Each individual piece is a monomer, and the larger construction is the polymer. The monomers are Amino Acids and they get pieced together to form the polymer that is called a protein. The linkage that they use is an amide bond, and in biology it is usually called a peptide bond.

Carbohydrates can be singular monomers or polymer units. They are made of completely different compounds - usually aldehydes or ketones. And they link together through different chemical linkages (acetal or ketal linkages for polymers,hemiacetal or hemiketal linkages for monomers).

Both can be large, 3D strucutres - proteins are only functional as a large, 3D structure, while carbohydrates can be singular.
