    of hydrogen-bonded water molecules is present at the boundary between water and air. As a result water behaves as though it is coated with an invisible film along the surface. An example how the cohesion of water affects the functioning of living organisms is present in plants. Evaporation from the leaves in plants pulls water up from the roots. Cohesion due to hydrogen bonding helps hold the column of water molecules together within the xylem vessels located in the stem or trunk of a plant. Adhesion

    55. a) Cuticles on the outermost layer of angiosperms are clear‚ which allows for light to pass through. The leaf is shaped in a way that will allow it to absorb more sunlight and be more efficient. Photosynthesis takes place in the spongy parenchyma and the palisade parenchyma. In order to obtain food‚ it is controlled by the stoma which controls the passage of gas and water. b) Water and food is transported through the xylem. The water will eventually be transported to the leaf tissue while the

    FRQ #3 a.) The first property of water is its polarity. A water molecule is formed by one oxygen atom covalently bonded to two hydrogen atoms. The electronegativity of the oxygen atom creates an unequal sharing of electrons between the O and H atoms of the molecule. This also gives water the ability to form hydrogen bonds between the slightly negative oxygen atom and the slightly positive hydrogen atom. Water has a high specific heat due to the hydrogen bonds. Because of this‚ water requires

    Josh P. AP Biology 12-10-13 Lab Writeup The Effect of Transformation of pGLO in Bacteria Background/Objectives/Hypothesis: Genetic transformation is a process that primarily is inserting new DNA into an organism to change that organism’s trait. This process has many useful benefits when used correctly in different organisms. In this lab‚ bacteria was transformed by inserting DNA for Green Fluorescent Proteins. The DNA for these proteins were taken from bioluminescent jellyfish Aequorea

    which a severe drop in population size can leave some alleles overrepresented in survivors and others underrepresented. In contrast‚ gene flow is the transfer of alleles into or out of a population due to the movement of fertile individuals on their gametes. Unlike the random favoring of traits that comes about through genetic drift‚ gene flow can transfer alleles that improve the ability of populations to adapt to local conditions‚ ultimately becoming a mechanism of natural selection.
