    atoms sharing the same electron. Ionic bonds occur when an atom takes one electron away from another atom. 2. Adhesion and Cohesion differ because adhesion is when 2 substance of the same kind are joined together. Cohesion is when 2 substances of different types are bonded together. One example of adhesion is water molecules coming together through their polarity. One example of cohesion is water and salt mixing together to get saltwater. 3. Substances that will dissolve in water are polar objects

    hold cells together. Cohesion between cells is essential to form organized multicellular structures‚ that can respond and withstand various external forces that mean to pull them apart. Cell cohesion is governed by a complex network of proteins and polysaccharide chains. These mechanisms of cohesion govern the architecture of the body and the making and breaking of these attachments control the orientation and behavior of the cell’s cytoskeleton. One of these proteins of cohesion is Cadherins. Cadherins

    there were 60 seconds you would have 120 litres. Q2. When you tip a bottle of syrup upside down‚ it takes a longtime for all the syrup to pour out. Explain this using the terms “viscosity‚” “cohesion‚” and “adhesion.” A2. Syrup takes a long time to empty because viscosity is high and the cohesion is low. Q3. Think back to the key question. List two different fluids. How are their flow rates different? A3. Water and syrup flow rates are different because water has a high viscosity and

    able to verify the adhesioncohesion‚ polarity‚ temperature stabilization‚ solvency‚ and density changes exhibited by water.    During the glass and wax paper lab‚ we observed the adhesive properties of water. When a droplet of water touched the glass‚ it dispersed immediately. The droplet placed on the wax paper remained intact and in droplet form. Also‚ when the glass and wax sheets were flipped‚ the water remained on the glass and fell off the wax paper. This is due to adhesion; the water molecules

    rate of evaporation   Water molecules are attracted to each other by Cohesion. This action extends down the xylem creating a ’suction’ effect. There is also adhesion between water molecules and the xylem vessels The cohesion and adhesion act together to maintain the water column all the way up from the root to the stomata. The rapid loss of water from the leaf pulls the water column stressing the cohesion and adhesion between water molecules. The movement of water is an example of mass flow

    tension? II. Background Adhesion is the bond between two substances of different makeups. In water‚ adhesion allows it to stick to other surfaces. Cohesion is the bond between two of the same substances. A hydrogen bond is a type of cohesion in water in which the hydrogen atoms of one water molecule being attracted to the oxygen atom of another water molecule. In water‚ each molecule in the middle is pulled equally in every direction by neighboring molecules. The cohesion forces between water molecules

    molecules. The hydrogen bonds between water molecules cause the water molecules other properties like cohesionadhesion‚ surface tension‚ waters ability to retain heat‚ and its ability to dissolve polar or ionic substances. Cohesion and adhesion are some of water ’s unique properties. These properties allow water to travel up plant stems; cohesion makes the water molecules stick together and adhesion makes the water cling to the stem wall therefore counteracting the downward pull of gravity.
