Water has many of its properties and can act as a major liquid in our bodies due to its high specific heat. However, if water ha

d a LOW heat capacity, its ability to serve as a liquid to maintain homeostasis would be altered. A student makes several claims about the impact the altered heat capacity would have on its properties. Which of these claims would NOT be supported by the change in specific heat capacity of water?

The claim which would not be supported by the change in specific heat capacity of water include reduction in body temperature and dehydration.

<h3>What is Specific heat capacity?</h3>

This is defined as the quantity of heat needed to raise a substance's temperature by 1 degree Celsius.

If water has a low specific heat capacity then the body temperature will increase which will lead to an increase in dehydration.

Why are inheritance patterns more complex than simple patterns Mendel observed?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Mendels studies predicted inheritance in a simple manner by studying traits which were not continuous or polygenic. Hence, the patterns of Mendel's observations were simple.

But there are certain traits which are polygenic that means depending on more than one gene type and there are other traits which are continuous. These kinds of traits have complex inheritance patterns and cannot be predicted through laws of Mendel.

Why Floating of ice on water?​
sleet_krkn [62]
Believe it or not, ice is actually about 9% less dense than water. Since the water is heavier, it displaces the lighter ice, causing the ice to float to the top. How is ice less dense than water? ... So for water, the density actually decreases along with a decrease in temperature - causing ice to be less dense than water!

Elan Coil [88]
In contrast to compact bone, spongy bones does not contain true Haversian systems( tiny tubes that form a network in bone and contain blood vessels) but consist of an irregular lattice of thin plates of bone called trabeculae.The spaces between trabeculae are filled with marrow. The cells of the red marrow are responsible for producing blood. Within trabeculae  lie lacunae which contain osteocytes.<span> Blood vessels from the periosteum penetrate through to the spongy bone,  and osteocytes in the trabeculae are nourished directly from the blood circulating through the marrow cavities.</span>
