High specific heat is one of five properties of water that is important to life. Specific heat is defined as the heat necessary to raise one gram of water by one degree Celsius. Because water’s temperature does not change dramatically when absorbing or losing heat‚ water can absorb or release exceeding amounts of heat (by breaking and forming hydrogen bonds) without affecting living organisms in the water and at the same time helping terrestrial organisms outside the water live easier. For example

To investigate the physical properties of pure chemical substances. Procedure: For this lab we used four test tubes and poured equal amounts of a substance in each test tube. We then observed the color and odor. We then heated the substance and recorded the observation. The next tube we added cold water and observed the effects‚ then we heated it

Chun Wai Discuss the advantages and disadvantages for plants of living in an aqueous environment compared to a terrestrial one? Introduction: Plants are commonly classified to two main types: aquatic plant and land plant. They have different features to adapt the living environment. What by meant is that they require different adaptions to stay alive in their respective environment such as humidity and structure of leaves. Aquatic plants referred to as hydrophytes or macrophytes. They need a special

the highest bid and acquire the property. In this case‚ Oceanview will wait for 6 months to decide. On the other hand‚ - There is 80% probability that Oceanview will not be the highest bidder and they will not get the property in this case where their deposit will be refunded. - There is 30% probability that there will be referendum for a zoning change being approved. This will result that the 500‚000$ will be considered as a down payment for the property. However‚ - There is 70% risk

Water is the most abundant molecule on Earth’s surface. It is essential for life on Earth. The unique properties of water makes life possible on earth. One property of water is surface tension. Water has a surface tension 2 – 4 times the surface tension of most organic liquids. Surface tension is highest for pure water. This enables insects called neuston to walk and live on the surface of water in low-nutrient water bodies‚ where they would starve if immersed in the water. This anomaly permits
