Water at about 4°C (39°F) is more dense than water at 0°C (32°F). Why would the living organisms in the lake die if the water at

the freezing point was denser than the water at 4°C?
The water would freeze across the surface of the lake, blocking sunlight necessary for photosynthesis.
The water would freeze across the surface of the lake, blocking the dissolving of oxygen and nutrients.
The freezing water would sink before it could freeze, preventing the lake water from freezing.
The freezing water would sink to the bottom and freeze the lake water from the bottom up.

The water would freeze across the surface of the lake, blocking the dissolving of oxygen and nutrients. <span>Water is actually less dense when frozen, which is why ice cubes and ice bergs all float. This is also why you can ice skate on a lake if the ice gets thick enough on the surface. Many organisms that live in freezing lakes have special adaptations which help them survive.</span>

Why is it important for living things that ice is less dence than water?​
Korvikt [17]

Explanation:

Ice actually has a very different structure than liquid water, in that the molecules align themselves in a regular lattice rather than more randomly as in the liquid form. It happens that the lattice arrangement allows water molecules to be more spread out than in a liquid, and, thus, ice is less dense than water.

Start with the P generation with the following genotypes (AA x aa). Based on classical Mendelian inheritance, how will a cross b
V125BC [204]

Answer: The correct answer is C) Although the F1 generation will all show the dominant trait, the offspring will all be heterozygous and increase chances of future variation.

According to Mendelian inheritance, true breeding parents ( which are homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive) for dominant and recessive allele will always result into offsprings with heterozygous dominant genotype.

As per the question, genotype of P ( parental ) generation is AA and aa. When they are crossed together, they result into Aa offsprings, which all exhibit dominant character/ phenotype. These offsprings will increase the chances of future variation.
