Surfactant helps to prevent the alveoli from collapsing by what?

Interfering with the cohesiveness of water molecules, thereby reducing the surface tension of alveolar fluid.


What gives rise to the cohesiveness of water molecules?

Water Molecules are polar molecules. That means that one end of the molecule has a slight positive end and one end has a slight negative end. Then just like a magnet, the positive end poles the negative end connecting the two.


Which kind of molecules determines the concentrations of other substances in the body?

water


What determines whether a substance is hydrophobic or hydrophilic?

The chemical structure of a substance determines whether it is hydrophobic (repels water) or hydrophilic (attracts water). Hydrophobic substances have non-polar molecules that do not interact well with water, while hydrophilic substances have polar molecules that can form bonds with water molecules.


What causes water to be warm?

The amount of vibration of the individual molecules (H2O) in the water determines its temperature.


The presence of which kind of molecules determines the concentration of other substance in the body?

Water


What means by cohesiveness of water molecules?

In chemistry and physics, cohesion refers to the sticking together of alike molecules, such as water molecule being attracted to another water molecule. Cohesion also causes water molecules to form drops.Together with adhesion It helps to explain the occurrence of surface tension and capillary action.In botany, cohesion pertains to the fusion of plant parts, such as in syncarpy.


Describe the biological significance of the cohesiveness of water?

Well, one really big and well known reason is that it allows water to be transported through plants. The sun exaporates water and cohesion allows the water to be sucked up to the leaves from the bottom even with gravity pulling down on it because of the constantly reformed hydrogen bonds.


Which biological process is associated with the cohesiveness of water molecule?

Hydrogen bomds


Why is water extremly cohesive?

Water is polar, meaning the Hydrogen and Oxygen molecules in the water have an uneven distribution of electrons. This causes an attraction between the water molecules poles, like magnets, which draws them together. The water Hydrogen Bond also affects cohesiveness because each oxygen molecule in water has 2 lone pairs of electrons which can each form a Hydrogen bond with the hydrogen from another water molecule
