Answer:
The characteristic of water that makes this liquid stick to the side of a test tube is called capillarity (Claim).
Explanation:
Water (H₂O) is a polar molecule with the ability to generate van der Waals forces, which is explained by the 4 hydrogen bonds it forms to bind to other substances. The consequence of the forces of the molecular bonds are four properties of H₂O, including surface tension, cohesion, adhesion and capillarity.
- <u>Claim</u>: The characteristic of water that makes this liquid stick to the side of a test tube is called capillarity.
- <u>Evidence</u>: Cohesion and adhesion of water are properties that come from the forces of the molecular bonds of water, and whose effect is the ability of water to wet surfaces and adhere to a tube that contains it, the latter due to capillarity. Capillarity also allows water to rise through the roots and stems of plants, through their thin vascular ducts.
- <u>Reasoning</u>: <u>cohesion</u> in water depends on the force of attraction between H₂O molecules, <u>adhesion</u> is the capacity of H₂O molecules to join other different molecules and —together with <u>surface tension</u>— make H₂O molecules close to the walls of a glass tube adhere to it, which represents capillarity.
The effect of capillarity is more evident when the test tube is of a smaller diameter, although capillarity and adhesion to its walls always exist, and to a greater degree than any other substance.
Those types of animals are considered filter feeders. <span />
Answer;
Chlorophyll
Chlorophyll is the green pigment found in plants traps energy from the sun for photosynthesis.
Explanation;
-Green plants requires food for their day to day activities, thus they use the process of photosynthesis to make their own food, which they use to generate energy or store for the future use in form of starch.
-Chlorophyll a pigment that gives plants their green color is vital during the process of photosynthesis. During the first phase of photosynthesis light dependent stage), chlorophyll traps sunlight which is used to split up water molecules to oxygen atoms and hydrogen ions, a process called photolysis.
