Is water a source of energy in the body?
The sources of energy in the body are carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, being burned in the presence of oxygen. But the chemical reactions required to consume this energy do require water, and in fact produce water and carbon dioxide as byproducts. So water is needed for energy consumption, but it's not itself a source of energy.
What do you call a rising and overflowing of a body of water?
depending on the weather, and nature of the body of water, it could be a flood, a tidal wave or monsoon. of course there are always other means of raising a body of water.
What is a straight on a map?
a small body of water that connects two larger bodies of water
A body of water surrounded by land?
Such a body of water could be called a reservoir, lake, mere, tarn, pool or pond.
How do you describe the atmosphere of a film?
Atmosphere is, in this case, synonymous with mood; it can be cheerful or depressed, tense or calm, and so forth.
The greatest source of moisture entering the atmosphere is evaporation from what surface?
The greatest source of moisture entering the atmosphere is evaporation from the oceans. Oceans cover about 71% of the Earth's surface and release a significant amount of water vapor into the atmosphere through evaporation. This water vapor plays a key role in the water cycle and influences global weather patterns.
Where does the water vapor that makes clouds come from?
Water vapor in the atmosphere primarily comes from the evaporation of water from oceans, lakes, rivers, and other bodies of water. When this water vapor cools and condenses, it forms clouds. Additionally, transpiration from plants and human activities such as industrial processes and combustion also contribute to water vapor in the atmosphere.
What are some sources of water vapor?
Water vapor can come from any body of water. A glass of water will evaporate and cause water vapor. It is the gaseous phase of water that can be produced from boiling liquid water, evaporation, or the sublimation of ice. Planetary mass objects have ejected water vapor into the atmosphere.
What does barometric pressure have to do with evaporation?
Above the surface of liquid water is a layer of water vapor. It has pressure. The atmosphere also has pressure. It pushes against the water vapor. The water vapor pushes against the atmosphere. It is called vapor pressure. It is related to temperature. When the vapor pressure equals barometric pressure, water boils. Normally this occurs at 100C or 212F. If you reduce the barometric pressure, you can reduce the boiling point of water. So when the barometric pressure is lower, the water vapor above the water has an easier time mixing with the atmosphere. As it mixes with the atmosphere, it is replaced by vapor from the water. It evaporates.
How does water move in evaporation?
Water molecules at the surface of a body of water gain enough energy from the environment to break free from the liquid phase and become water vapor. These water vapor molecules rise into the atmosphere, contributing to evaporation.
Where does the water vapor in your breath comes from?
The water vapor in your breath comes from water contained in your body, particularly in your lungs and airways. As you exhale, this water is released into the air in the form of vapor.
Describe the difference between clouds and water vapor?
CLOUDA cloud is a visible mass of liquid droplets or frozen crystals made of water and/or various chemicals suspended in the atmosphere above the surface of a planetary body. They are also known as aerosols.WATER VAPORWater vapor, also aqueous vapor, is the gas phase of water. It is one state of water within the hydrosphere. Water vapor can be produced from the evaporation or boiling of liquid water or from the sublimation of ice. Under typical atmospheric conditions, water vapor is continuously generated by evaporation and removed by condensation. It is lighter than air and triggers convection currents that can lead to clouds. Water vapor is a potent greenhouse gas along with other gases such as carbon dioxide and methane.
Which heat is stored in water vapour?
The heat is stored in water vapour is latent heat.Latent heat describes energy that is not stored as the internal energy (i.e. temperature) of an object but in its phase state.For example, in the atmosphere heat that is transported by an air parcel that contains more water vapor than its surroundings. Because energy is needed to turn water into water vapor, water vapor is a way for a body to store energy (along with potential energy, kinetic energy, and sensible heat). If the water vapor is returned to a liquid or solid phase (by condensation or sublimation), the stored energy is released as sensible heat.
What happens when solar energy from the sun strikes a body of water?
When solar energy strikes a body of water, the water absorbs some of the energy and heats up. This heating leads to evaporation, causing water vapor to rise into the atmosphere and eventually form clouds. This process is a key component of the water cycle.
What is the movement of water vapor from a living body?
The movement of water vapor from a living body is called transpiration. It is the process where plants release water vapor through small openings in their leaves called stomata in order to help regulate temperature and facilitate nutrient uptake.
What are the source of water from which water evaporates?
Water is evaporated from any body of water and from any other source.
What is the water vapor pressure at body temperature?
It is determined by Dalton's law.
