hydrogen bonds
As water evaporates from a leaf, ________ cause water molecules leaving the veins to tug on molecules farther down, and the upward pull is carried all the way to the roots via the water- conducting cells.
Cohesion
________ caused by hydrogen bonding aids in the movement of water and dissolved nutrients in plants against gravity.
Temperature
________ indicates the average kinetic energy of molecules in a body of matter independent of volume, whereas thermal energy reflects total kinetic energy and hence relies on the volume of the substance.
Atoms
________ and molecules have kinetic energy because they are always moving, but not always in the same direction.
Kinetic energy
________, or the energy of motion, is present in everything that moves.
ratio of ice
The ________ to liquid water is shifting as the Earth warms due to climate change.
Thermal energy
________ is the kinetic energy associated with the random movement of atoms or molecules.
hydrogen bonds
The ________ keep the material together as a whole, a process known as cohesion.
hydrogen bonding
Water's ________ to the molecules of cell walls helps to counteract gravity's downward pull.
hydrogen bond
A(n) ________ holds the two molecules together as shown in the image attached.
hydrogen bonding
Because of ________, water molecules remain near to one another.
