Large bodies of water do not quickly fluctuate in temperature. Why?

Water has a high heat capacity.

Which of the following properties of water enables it to move from the roots to the leaves of plants?

Water exhibits cohesive behavior.

As water freezes, it expands and its density decreases.

As water freezes, it takes up more hydrogen from the atmosphere, causing it to have a greater buoyancy.

As water freezes, air becomes trapped between the hydrogen bonds of water molecules.

As water freezes, it takes up more oxygen from the atmosphere, causing it to have a greater buoyancy.

Why does water move from the roots to the leaves of plants?

Capillary action pulls the water molecules like a chain

Water’s surface tension causes it to “pull” towards the leaves

Water striders can walk across the surface of calm water. Their feet push the surface of the water down slightly, but they do not break the surface. Why?

The insects are light enough so they do not break the hydrogen bonds holding the water molecules together

The insects actually use their wings to hover slightly above the water’s surface and they only skim it with their feet.

The insect’s feet are non-polar, so they are repelled by the polar water molecules and are pushed away from the water’s surface.

The insects are small enough to see the individual water molecules, so they are able to step carefully from one molecule to the next

Chloroplasts in plant cells allow the plant to perform a function that animal cells cannot do. What is the main function of the chloroplasts found in plant cells?

to absorb light energy and manufacture food

to remove waste materials by active transport

to manufacture chemical energy from food

to control the shape of the cell

What is the function of a cell wall?

to protect and support the cell

to perform different functions in each cell

to prevent water from passing through it

to prevent oxygen from entering the cell

Which of the following is not part of the cell theory?

all living things are made from cells

cells can only come from other cells

cells are the basic unit of life

How does a cell maintain homeostasis?

Regulates what enters and leaves the cell
