Reading Passage: Water molecules have unusual chemical and physical properties. Water can exist in all three states of matter at the same time: liquid, gas, and solid.  Imagine that you’re sitting in your hot tub (filled with liquid water) watching the steam (gas) rise from the surface as you enjoy a cold drink from a glass filled with ice (solid) cubes. Very few other chemical substances can exist in all these physical states in this close of a temperature range. It is no wonder why water is essential for life. Its special properties make water the single most important molecule in plant life.Question: Which of the following properties of water enables water molecules to stick to one another?

a)
an acid.
b)
versatile solvent.
c)

buffer.
32.
Reading Passage: Polar ice caps are dome-shaped sheets of ice found near the North and South Poles. They form because high-latitude polar regions receive less heat from the sun than other areas on Earth. As a result, average temperatures at the poles can be very cold. The polar ice caps contain the majority of Earth’s supply of freshwater. In fact, scientists estimate that 70 percent of Earth’s freshwater supply remains in an ice sheet at the South Pole.Question: Why does ice stay at the top of oceans instead of sinking to the bottom?

Ice is colder than liquid water.
b)
Solid ice is less dense than liquid water.

Reading Passage: Osmosis and diffusion are of prime importance in living organisms, where they influence the distribution of nutrients and the release of metabolic waste products. If blood cells (or other cells) are placed in contact with an isotonic solution, they will neither shrink nor swell. If the solution is hypertonic, the cells will lose water and shrink (plasmolyze). If the solution is hypotonic (or if pure solvent is used) the cells will swell; the osmotic pressure that is developed may even be great enough to rupture the cell membrane. Saltwater from the ocean is hypertonic to the cells of the human body; the drinking of ocean water dehydrates body tissues instead of quenching thirst.Question: An animal cell that is surrounded by fresh water will burst because the osmotic pressure causes
a)
