B. The blotting paper would fail to function
C. There would have been no plants on earth
D. All of above
D. All of above
If there were no capillarity, it would indeed have significant implications for the existence of plants on Earth. Capillarity, also known as capillary action, is the ability of liquids to flow in narrow spaces or tubes, such as the tiny vessels in plant tissues.
Capillarity has various applications in everyday life, ranging from the functioning of wicking materials in candles and paper towels to ink rising in a fountain pen or water being absorbed by a sponge. It is a fundamental concept in fluid dynamics and has implications in many scientific and engineering fields.
