Why is it important to study the ecology of animals? * 1 point It is crucial for ensuring the continued survival of many populations when their natural environments are altered by human activity. It is now a highly synthetic science that incorporates everything we know about the behavior, physiology, genetics, and evolution of animals to study the interactions between populations of animals and their environments. It helps us understand how these diverse interactions determine geographical distributions and abundance of animal populations.

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.
