Trees use narrow tubes to transport water upward. Which property of water allows the water to rise in these narrow tubes?

cluponka [151]

Answer:

C. Cohesion of molecules

Explanation:

Cohesion is the interaction of molecules of the same substance together. By the force of cohesion if two drops of water come together they form one. Water has high rates of cohesion due to hydrogen bonds.

This phenomenon also called surface tension and is what allows small insects to stand on water.

Cohesion along with adhesion of water to the walls of the narrow tube generate what is called capillarity. This allows liquids to ascend inside the narrow tubes. As long as the cohesion is less than the adhesion, the liquid will rise until both forces are equal.

b. In 1979, the estimated elephant population was 1.3 million and in 2007 it was 640,000. By approximately what percentage did t

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The initial amount, 1.3 million = 1,300,000 is the 100%.

now, 640,000 is a given percentage (lower than 100%) of that.

How we can find it?

suppose that 640,000 represents an x%.

Then we have that the quotient between the actual quantities and the percentages must be the same

(640,000/1,300,000) = x%/100%

x% = (640,000/1,300,000)*100% = 49.23%

Then the percentage declined is:

100% - 49.23% = 50.77%

The other question can not be answered with the given information.

A chef fills a 40 mL container with 30 g of cooking oil. What is the density of the oil?

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

So 1 ml=1 cm^3, so 40ml is 40 cm^3

D= m/v

density = 30/40

Density of oil is 0.75 g/cm^3 (which is verified as oil is less dense than water hence floats on it)

According to Piaget's theory of cognitive development, which of the following is true of children in the concrete operational st

Anika [276]

Answer:

A. They center on the motives of wrongdoers as well as on the amount of damage done when assigning blame.

Explanation:

The Concrete Operational Stage, according to Piaget, refers to a stage that begins around age 7 and ends around the ages of 11 or 13.

During this stage, children are now capable of thinking in a more logical manner and their moral judgement has become subjective as <u>they now center on the motives of wrongdoers as well as on the amount of damage done when assigning blame</u>. For instance, they are able to judge another child according to the amount of damage she/he has done and whether it was done in purpose or accidentally.

They can also center on two dimensions of a problem at once and have thoughts that involve tangible objects instead of abstract ideas.
