Which of the following is an example of adhesion in organisms? a. capillary action of liquid in plant stems
b. release of sweat to reduce body heat
c. movement of ions to maintain homeostasis
d. pumping of blood through the circulatory system

a. capillary action of liquid in plant stems

Explanation:

Vascular plants need to transport water from roots to stem and leaves. For this purpose, water molecules adhere to xylem cell walls (xylem is one of the two classes of transport tissues in higher plants). Adhesion, also known as capillary action, is a mechanism produced when water molecules cling to xylem cell walls. Thus, adhesion can be defined as a molecular mechanism caused by the attraction between molecules, in this case, between molecules of the xylem and water molecules.

i think a) betsy can donate only blood to mark is correct because, mark and betsy have the same blood type. whereas nobody else has b+ blood so betsy can't donate to them.

it has to be understood that the sea water contains a huge amount of sodium and chlorine ions and if they enter the cell of the atlantic cod fish, the cell will shrivel and the fish will die. to avoid such a condition, the fish uses active transport for the purpose of removing the ions against the gradient.

explanation:

the atlantic cod is not a maritime osmoconformer. its native application of salts is less than that of the seawater it lives in. it is continually falling water from the gills to the ocean via osmosis.

countering that, the fish is going to be swallowing seawater. but since its internal collection of salts is lower than seawater, the fish will want to go free of excess salt, and since that's going upon a gradient, then active transport, requiring energy, must be used to pump out the salt. much marine fish use the organs to filter out the salt and these fish discharge very straight urine.
