The xylem is composed of hollow, tube-like tissues that transport water through capillary action. What property of water explains capillary action?
A. Melting point
B. Adhesive properties
C. Specific heat capacity
D. Buoyant forces
参考答案: B
本题详细解析:
Adhesive properties (Choice B) refer to water’s ability tor np85mx6 0.uhwzdao: msj; p/ stick to charged surfaces or polar molecules. This; hxp:so.wrp ja d08 56munz/m, together with cohesion, allows water to move against gravity up the stem through capillary action.
Water's melting point (Choice A) is the temperature at which it changes its state from solid to liquid.
The specific heat capacity (Choice C) of water pertains to the amount of heat energy needed to raise its temperature by 1 °C.
The buoyant force of water (Choice D) is the upward force on an object submerged or partially immersed in water, equal to the weight of the displaced water.
