Droughts, periods of time with below average rainfall, result from a lack of precipitation. Imagine an area along the coast that normally receives rain clouds that develop over the ocean and move in toward land. If this coastal area is currently experiencing a drought, how would a decrease in evaporation from the ocean affect the drought?

The drought would become even worse.

Explanation:

A lack of precipitation along the coast of a city in the midst of a drought would make the drought worsen because there would be no water to help stop it. Evaporation leads to the formation of rain clouds that would result in rain. With no evaporation within a drought stricken region, there would then be no rainfall and thus, the drought would continue to get worse.

answer:

the water molecules are transferred from the roots to the stem or top parts of the tall tree because of important properties of water which are adhesion, cohesion and capillary action. cohesion is the property of water molecules keeps water molecules in a combined state by sharing of bonds between them at the atomic level. adhesion allows the interaction of water molecules with other substances or substrate. adhesion will cause the attachment of water molecules to the wall of the vessel (xylem) of the plant. capillary action occurs when the adhesive force to the vessel wall is stronger than the cohesive force between water molecules. capillary action mimics the transfer of water from a tube or pipe. in this way water utilizes its property to transfer water from down to top level of the plant.
