Is Water Wet? If So, What makes it wet, if not what makes it dry?

Biology
1 answer:
Monica [59]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Water is a liquid. Water is not wet BECAUSE something is only wet when water is on that object.

Explanation:

For example, there is water is a glass cup, and then the glass cup spills onto the table, causing the table to be wet, BUT you can remove that water from the table with some paper towels or a rag. Therefore, the table is no longer wet. Or when you're out in the rain and it gets on your clothes and/or hair, then your clothes and/or hair is WET.

When you put water onto water, it's an addition of water, you don't say it's wet or wetter.

Now, let me further prove my point with a different element: Fire. Fire burns things, right? So, when fire is on an object, then that object is burned. And when you add fire to fire, it causes more fire; fire does not burn itself.

Therefore, water is NOT wet. Wet is an adjective to describe an object that has been touched by a liquid, in this case, water.

So, yeah, enjoy the rest of your day. I'm sure some would like to argue my point. Go ahead.

Explain about the temperate forest biome. Explain how the organisms in cold forests biome adapt to their environment. Also expla
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

In winter, the forest is extremely cold. The roots of the evergreen plants are unable to access water. The needle-like structure of these trees minimizes water loss from transpiration. The needles are also dark in color. The color allows them to absorb maximum sunlight for photosynthesis. Even with little food, the animals in the biome can access food from these trees. Squirrels can eat the seeds from the pinecones. Crossbill birds have special beaks that allow them to access the seeds. Moose eat sappy twigs. They’ve also adapted to build fat reserves to help them survive the harsh winter. Some animals hibernate, and others migrate to warmer places to survive the winter. During summer, the long days allow abundant photosynthesis. So, there’s increased plant growth accompanied by increased insect activity. Trees with seasonal leaves develop new leaves. Birds that had migrated return during the summer, when food is readily available. The plants and animals work as a system to obtain an adequate food supply throughout the year.
