Capillary action is a combination of the adhesive and cohesive properties of water in which the water is able to move up a small tube against the pull of gravity. Therefore, the uptake of food and water is due to capillary action.

Change in climate has nothing to do with adhesion and cohesion in water. Some insects can walk on water due to surface tension, which is due to cohesion. However, there is no movement upward through a tube with surface tension, and so it is not an example of capillary action.

Hope this helps! :)

Drag each label to the correct location. Each label can be used more than once. In a hydropower station, water stored in dams is

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Stored water - gravitational energy

Water fall - kinetic energy

Turbine - kinetic energy

Powerlines - electric energy

Explanation:

Dams are used to store or hold water for hydroelectric power plants. This stored water which has gravitational energy is a form of potential energy.

When the water is left to fall and run fast through the turbine, the gravitational energy is transformed into kinetic energy which makes the turbine to spin.

As the turbine spins, kinetic energy that is produced also powers the shaft of the engine in the electric generator, which produces electricuty.

Kinetic energy is transformed to electric energy and transmitted along powerlines.

*See attachment below for labelled energy that is being transformed at several points.
