Kinetic particle model of matter — practice question

When pollen grains suspended in water are observed under a microscope, they are seen moving continuously and quickly in random directions. What makes a pollen grain move like this?

  • Aconvection currents in the water
  • Bbombardment by a single molecule of water
  • Cuneven bombardment on different sides by water molecules
  • Dcollision with another pollen grain due to their kinetic energies
