Explanation

Water molecules are held together by hydrogen bonds,

It is a type of strong intermolecular force

Where the slightly positive hydrogen of one molecule attracts the slightly negative oxygen of another, creating a "sticky" network that gives water unique properties like surface tension.

Explanation

• The female gametophyte of angiospermic plants is the embryo sac.
• It is also known as the megagametophyte.
• It is the haploid (containing one set of chromosomes) structure within the ovule that contains the egg cell.
• It is responsible for fertilization.

Explanation

• Only about 2.5% or 0.025 (3%) of the water on Earth is freshwater, which is vital for human consumption, agriculture, and ecosystem health.
• The remaining 97.5% (97%) is saltwater, found in oceans, seas, and salt lakes.

Explanation

• An ammeter measures the electric current flowing through a circuit.
• It is connected in series so that the same current flowing through the circuit also passes through the ammeter.
• An ammeter has very low resistance to minimize its effect on the current being measured.

Additional information:

• A voltmeter, in contrast, is connected in parallel to measure the potential difference across a component.

Explanation

• Water (H₂O) is a polar solvent due to its asymmetrical molecular structure.
• It results in a slightly positive charge on the hydrogen atoms.
• A slightly negative charge on the oxygen atom.
