Any fluid that is denser than air can be siphoned, such as water, gasoline, or oil. The fluid will flow from a higher point to a lower point due to gravity and atmospheric pressure.

What is a siphon and how does it function on an octopus?

A siphon is a tube-like structure that helps in the movement of fluids. In octopuses, the siphon is used to expel water forcefully, allowing them to move quickly and escape from predators. The octopus contracts its mantle cavity, forcing water out through the siphon, propelling it in the opposite direction.

Which type of heat transfer can only travel through fluids?

Convection is the type of heat transfer that can only travel through fluids (liquids and gases) due to the movement of the fluid itself.


Why can't s waves travel through fluids?

Sound waves can travel through fluids, it is just that due to the physical proporties of water, sound waves are dampened much faster than they would be in gas.


Can s waves travel through fluids and liquids?

Yes because sound waves go through everything.

Which substance can heat travel through convection?

In fluids such as liquids and gases, heat can travel through convection. This occurs when particles in the fluid transfer thermal energy as they move from one place to another. Convection is an efficient method of heat transfer in fluids.


What are the two forms in which sound can travel?

Sound can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. In solids, sound travels through vibrations of particles, while in fluids (liquids and gases), sound travels through compressions and rarefactions of the medium.


What are the two gasses exchanged by the gills in a clam?

oxygen is absorbed into the clam through the incurrent siphon, and carbon dioxide is exported out of the clam through the excurrent siphon


Can Fluids transmit P waves?

Yes, P (longitudinal) waves can travel through solid, liquid, and gaseous mediums.


How does water enter and exit the mantle cavity?

Water enters the mantle cavity through an incurrent siphon, and exits the mantle through an ex current siphon. This is a normal aspect of biology.
