Which of the following effects is produced by the cohesive properties of water molecules? Lakes do not freeze solid in winter, even at below freezing temperatures. Evaporation of water from leaf's surface lowers the temperature of the leaf. Water flows upward from a plant's roots to the leaves in narrow tubes. Cells resist temperature changes, even as their internal processes give off heat.
