1. Applications of Properties of water
Read the description of the scenarios and determine what property or properties of water are responsible.

2. Water Striders, Bell Spiders , Basilisk Lizards, and a few other species are able to walk on water

3. The temperatures of land near a body of water are more moderate
The temperatures of land near a body of water are more moderate. Water keeps its temperature within a relatively narrow range, causing nearby coastal areas to also have a narrow daily and seasonal temperature range.

4. Water level in your straw is higher than the water level in the rest of the glass

5. Water climbs upward from the roots of plants through its Vascular Tissue

6. Water drops hang on leafs

7. Arteries and veins break into capillaries to help pump blood when it is distant from the heart pumping

8. Homeostasis (the body’s ability to maintain steady internal conditions; temperature, blood pH, sugar level, etc.) means our body is able to maintain a regular internal body temperature. One way it accomplishes this, is through Sweat.
Evaporation of sweat from the skin surface has a cooling effect due to the latent heat of evaporation of water.

9. Our body’s internal temperature stays within the narrow range of 98
Our body’s internal temperature stays within the narrow range of 98.6  F (37  C) even though blood pumps far away from the core

10. Oxygen (nutrient) and Carbon Dioxide (waste) is dissolved into the liquid part of blood and transported throughout the body
