The ability of a water strider to move along the surface of water without breaking the surface is due to:

The ability of a water strider to move along the surface of water without breaking the surface is due to:

SURFACE TENSION

Explanation:

this is because Water molecules are more attracted to each other than they are to other materials, so they generate a force to stay together called surface tension. Which allows the strider to move without breaking the surface

reserve is the answer

  distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

  slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

  comparing both the equations

    change in value of y -axis = change in position

  change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.
