Water is a very good solvent for substance due to its_ nature and acts as_ due to its higher heat capacity.
Correct answer: A. Dipole nature, Thermo-stabilizer
- A. Dipole nature, Thermo-stabilizer
- B. Organic, Inorganic
- C. Polar, Bipolar
- D. Ionic, Covalent
Explanation
Water is an excellent solvent for polar substances due to its dipole nature. Tons and molecules move randomly and are in a more favorable state to react with other molecules and ions when in solution and water has greater ability to absorb heat due to higher heat capacity and act as thermal-stabilizer.

About Biological Molecules
The chapter covers water's polarity and biological roles, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids, including their monomers, bonds, structures and functions. It also distinguishes RNA from DNA and explains conjugated molecules such as glycoproteins, glycolipids and nucleoproteins, which combine organic molecules with a non-protein component.
