Explain how advances in scientific knowledge have influenced society.

Environmental contingency plans are important because it is not possible to accurately predict possible environmental changes brought about by environmental policies and practices. Changes that occur can be disastrous, so having a contingency plan that can be effected to quickly deal with the changes in an attempt to mitigate the damage can be crucial.

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.
