Water is essential to all living things. (a) Identify THREE properties of water. (b) Describe the property of water responsible for any ONE of the following statements. You are only choosing to discuss one of these four statements. (1): The role of water as a medium for the metabolic processes of cells (2) The ability of water to control temperature within living organisms and in the environment (3) The movement of water from the roots to the leaves of plants (4) The ability of other molecules to dissolve in water

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

gas, solid, liquid

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

(A) The main properties of water are its polarity, cohesion, adhesion, surface tension, high specific heat, and evaporative cooling.

(B) (1) Water is the medium for various enzymatic & chemical reactions in the body.

(B) (2)  Waters high specific heat enables it to act as an absorber of heat inside an organisms body. -

(B) (3) Transpiration is the loss of water from a plant in the form of water vapor.

(B) (4)Because of its polarity and ability to form hydrogen bonds, water makes an excellent solvent, meaning that it can dissolve many different kinds of molecules.

Explanation:

(A) A water molecule is slightly charged on both ends. This is because oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen.

(B) (1) It moves nutrients, hormones, antibodies and oxygen through the blood stream and lymphatic system. The proteins and enzymes in our body function more efficiently in solutions of low viscosity.

(B) (2)  Waters high heat of vaporization allows the body to cool by perspiring. When the water evaporates off the skin a lot of heat is absorbed. Explain the movement of water from the roots to the leaves of plants.

(B) (3) Water is absorbed by roots from the soil and transported as a liquid to the leaves via xylem. In the leaves, small pores allow water to escape as a vapor.

Arizona gets huge amount of sunlight. That's why Arizona is burning in the summer. During the summertime in Arizona, It can reach as hot as 120°F! It also ranked as No. 1 in the All-Time Record Maximum Temperature by State! In Lake Havasu City, it reached 128 °F! Arizona is also known for having heatwaves. About 76 people died during one of Arizona's heatwaves in 2014.

                               California

California is another state that gets a lot of sunlight. Since California gets high amounts of sunlight, most hurricanes form by California and Arizona. In September 6, 2020 California had recent a heatwave that broke out in several locations in Southern California. It reached 121 °F (49 °C), and a woman died while hiking.

Answers

Answer:B. Sugar are produced

Explanation: when green leaves absorb sunlight it is converted to Energy by photosynthesis.

Answer:

I'm pretty sure it's C.

Explanation:

Plants don't get to warm unless they don't have oxygen, sugars are produced, but only during all of photosynthesis, and green leaves don't turn red unless the season is changing. But sun light gives chlorophyll what it needs to produce that green color. Therefor, C is your answer.

How would the process of photosynthesis be affected if an outdoor garden didn't receive enough water due to drought

Answers

I think photosynthesis is mainly from sunlight to make energy for food for the plants

Without sufficient water, biological functions like photosynthesis are drastically diminished. Reduced photosynthesis inhibits plant growth, including root development.

What is photosynthesis?

To make food, a process called photosynthesis must be carried out, which can only take place in plants that have the chlorophyll pigment. Sunlight, water, and oxygen are necessary components, and the reaction that takes place is a combination of two distinct processes, one of which is light-dependent and the other of which is light-independent.

The process of photosynthesis is carried out by chloroplasts during the hours of daylight. NADPH and ATP, the two primary results of photosynthesis, are utilized by photosynthetic cells in the process of producing a wide variety of organic compounds.
