Question

part two fill in the table below by using the information contained in the scenario and diagram. the milano family is thinking about starting a hydroponic tomato garden. a hydroponic garden is a method of growing plants without soil using a soilless medium. monika is researching all the components of starting the garden. she has found the following facts and diagram: typical hydroponic garden set up fertilizer is dissolved in water to make a fertilizer solution. the liquid fertilizer is placed in the nutrient pump and is pushed into the upper tray, which contains the plants. the plant roots absorb the fertilizer solution. it is carried to the top of the plant by its stem. the temperature of the water in the lower tray is important if the plants are grown outside. complete the table below by using examples from the scenario. properties of water examples from scenario ability to moderate temperature cohesion adhesion expansion upon freezing universal solvent

Explanation:

1. Ability to Moderate Temperature: The water in the lower tray can help moderate temperature if plants are grown outside, as water has a high - specific heat capacity which allows it to absorb and release heat slowly.
2. Cohesion: Not explicitly mentioned in the scenario. Cohesion is the attraction between water molecules. In a hydroponic system, it could be related to how water moves in the pipes or nutrient flow systems, but no example given here.
3. Adhesion: Not explicitly mentioned. Adhesion is the attraction between water and other substances. In plants, it helps in the capillary action that moves water up the stem, but not directly stated in this scenario.
4. Expansion Upon Freezing: Not mentioned. If water in the system freezes (not applicable in a well - regulated hydroponic system), it would expand and could damage the system, but no such example here.
5. Universal Solvent: Fertilizer is dissolved in water to make a fertilizer solution, showing water's ability to dissolve many substances as a universal solvent.

Answer:

Properties of Water	Examples from Scenario
Cohesion	No example given
Adhesion	No example given
Expansion Upon Freezing	No example given
Universal Solvent	Fertilizer is dissolved in water to make a fertilizer solution
