What characteristic of water is the most beneficial to living things?
cohesion and adhesion
How does adhesion affect living organisms?
Adhesion is important for living organisms because it allows cells to stick together and form tissues and organs. In plants, adhesion helps water move up through the xylem vessels. In animals, adhesion is needed for cells to stick to blood vessel walls and for platelets to form blood clots.
What is a mixture of of water and living cells?
an adhesion
How does the water cycle affect living things?
It ensures that the water on Earth does not run out, for water is a vital need fro living things, especially humans.
Describe how living things affect the water cycle?
living things are part of the water cycle because when ur cooking or boiling water the sun evaporates the water and then the water cycle begins
What characteristic of water is the most beneficial to living things?

What describes adhesion in water?
A simple definition of adhesion in water would be that water sticks to things. An example of this can be seen when pouring water into a shallow dish. Rather than staying in one area, the water will spread out to touch all parts of the dish.If you are referring to the adhesion of water onto glass or substances of the like, it is because water molecules make weak bonds with the molecules on the glass, which are easily broken, ie pour out of the glass or evaporation.

How does adhesion and cohesion affect each other?
Adhesion is where water molecules stick to other things, and cohesion is where the water molecules stick to each other. The combination of this makes it so that together, they can climb up things like roots of a tree to give the tree water.

How does water adhesion affect living organisms?
Water molecules adhere to the xylem walls and are carried up by transpirational pull during ascent of sap, which is an essential process for plant life.

How does cohesion affect living organisms?
Cohesion is the attraction or holding together of molecules of the same substance. It affects living organisms through water, which also has adhesion (holding together of molecules of different substances). A combination of cohesion and adhesion creates capillary action, the ability for water (or any liquid) to run along a surface. (basically, it allows water to climb up small tubes.
How does water affect living things?
It dries the water out the living organism
How do non living things affect the organisms?
Abiotic factors (non-living things) affect organisms in many ways. Water, light, gases, temperature and salinity are all non living things but all contibute in the functioning of organisms.
What is it called when water sticks to different substances?
Adhesion is when water molecules stick to other molecules
