Examine the pictures of water above. What do they tell you about water? How do they relate to the wide-ranging effects of water on our lives? After answering these questions, brainstorm a list of other opposites that can be represented by water and then answer what it would be like to have a world with no water.
Interpretation:
A brief description about water and its wide ranging effects on our lives has to be given by examining the given pictures of water. An explanation should be given for the question that what it would be like to have a world with no water.
Concept introduction:
Water covers most part of the Earth.
It is a liquid and so it has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container.
It is a very important for the existence of life on Earth.
Water provides largest ecosystems simply the aqua eco systems.
Explanation of Solution
The given pictures of water are shown below,
From the picture we can give many facts about water and some of them are listed below,
The both pictures reveal the abundance and its vital energy in the nature. It can be moved easily by wind or it takes the shape of its environment.
Water is the part of larger ecosystem namely aqua-ecosystem.
Uncontrolled winds causes’ high altitude waves like in the second picture which can seriously affects many human beings and other organisms.
The life in Earth is completely dependent to WATER and so without water life would cease to exist. The world becomes dusty and dry.

Water is necessary for life on Earth. Water is made up of hydrogen and oxygen atoms (H2O); however, biological life in water depends on another form of oxygen. These organisms need molecular oxygen (O2), which they use to perform aerobic respiration. This molecular oxygen fits into spaces between water molecules and is available for aquatic organisms to use. How do you think molecular oxygen gets into the water? Choose two of the following choices. Select all that apply: From the oxygen atoms that are part of the water molecules. From oxygen that dissolves into water from the atmosphere. From oxygen that is given off by aquatic organisms during respiration. From oxygen that is given off by aquatic plants during photosynthesis.arrow_forwardstory Bookmarks Window Help > ab and Mastering OCT 19 80 You may want to reference (Pages 294- A ▼ $ Part A Submit increases How do temperature and pressure affect the solubility of solids and gases in water?

Previous Answers Request Answer % openvellum.ecollege.com FS E Course Home An increase temperature usually increases the solubility of solids and decreases the solubility of gases in water. S An increase in pressure of a gas above a liquid increes the solubility of a gas within that solution and decreases the solubility of solids. F6 X Incorrect; Try Again; 5 attempts remaining You filled in 1 of 4 blanks incorrectly. Henry's law states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly related to the gas pressure above the liquid. The law does not apply to solids, as the pressure does not impact the number of solid…arrow_forward

Initially, the bubble has a volume of 10.0 mL. Assuming none of the air dissolves in the water, how many times larger is the bubble just as it reaches the surface? Use this data: 1. The density of seawater is approximately 1.025g mL1 2. The density of mercury is 13.6 g mL-1 i times larger Use your answer to explain why scuba divers constantly exhale as they slowly rise from a deep dive. Since the pressure decreases by a factor of approximately , the volume must by increase a factor of approximately i Divers exhale to decreases the amount of gas in their lungs, so it does not expand to a volume larger than the diver's lungs.arrow_forward
