and other fluids that are needed to generate life. Fluids also are present in all technologies we had today
and in conclusion, fluids shaped the world literally and figuratively speaking.

10. What causes fluid flow?

The density difference between liquid and solid ( shrinkage flow), or by the action of gravity on density
gradients within the fluid phase itself.
