Based on Figure 1, which of the following best describes how the properties of water at an air-water interface enable an insect to walk on the water's surface?
A. Covalent bonds between water molecules and the air above provide cohesion, which causes tiny bubbles to form under the feet of the insect.
B. lonic bonds between molecules at the surface of the water provide an electric charge, which attracts the feet of the insect, keeping it on the surface.
C. Polar covalent bonds between molecules at the surface of the water provide adhesion, which supports the weight of the insect.
D. Hydrogen bonds between molecules at the surface of the water provide surface tension, which allows the water surface to deform but not break under the insect.
