This demonstrates the capillary action of water because your blood is made up largely of water.]]> 2017-04-20 19:58:58 UTC https://padlet.com/61930/qug5zc6jh1ft/wish/167372405 55344 https://padlet.com/61930/qug5zc6jh1ft/wish/167372437 Surface tension allows for light objects that are more dense to float on top of the surface of the water.

For example, a paper clip can float on the top of the water and water striders can walk on top of the water.]]> 2017-04-20 19:59:13 UTC https://padlet.com/61930/qug5zc6jh1ft/wish/167372437 61930 https://padlet.com/61930/qug5zc6jh1ft/wish/167372506
