6.

What is the benefit of high surface tension of water for insects:

a)
Allows insects to fly faster
b)
Enables insects to breathe underwater

7.

The high viscosity of water is important because:

a)
It allows substances to dissolve in it easily and helps in transporting nutrients and waste in living organisms.
b)
It reduces the surface tension of water and allows insects to walk on it.
c)
It increases the boiling point of water and helps in cooking food.
d)
It makes water less dense and allows objects to float in it.
