What happens once an item breaks through the surface tension of water? a. it sinks b. it floats c. it becomes hot d. it becomes cold

Answer;

A. it sinks

Explanation;Surface tension is the force that makes water to behave like a stretched skin. It is a result of cohesion forces between water molecules. Surface tension force causes objects to float on water. For instance small objects floats on the surface of water, as long as the object can not break through and separate the water molecules on the top layer.When an objects or items break through and separates the top layer of water molecules on the surface of the water, then they will sink. Surface tension may also be broken by factors such as impurities such as soaps and detergents which weakens the hydrogen bonds holding the water molecules together.

Hunting in the darksome fish rely on senses beyond sight. in the darkness of the marianas trench, a fish called the rattail has an extremely sensitive sense of smell. the fish uses scent, rather than sight, to steer toward food. once it's near food, the rattail uses a special organ on the bottom of its chin to guide itself by feel.marine snowone staple of the deep sea diet is "marine snow," flakes of organic, edible substances that sink down from the upper ocean. animals at the ocean's bottom find sustenance in everything from the bodies of dead creatures to fecal matter. marine snow is diverse enough to support numerous species. for instance, several species of snails and worms feed exclusively on deceased whales.microorganismsthe deep sea is an intricate ecosystem, and even the ocean floor itself plays a part. hydrothermal vents are cracks in the sea floor where erupting magma mixes with ocean water to produce plumes of hot, sulfur-rich chemicals. some microbes can use these chemicals for energy, sustaining their existence and that of the animals who depend on their roles in the deep sea food chain.
