Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

The high specific heat of water caused by hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity of a substance is the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of that substance by one degree Celsius (1° C).

Due to the hydrogen bonding present in water, water has a high specific heat capacity of 4184 Joules per kilogram. This means that, water has to absorb 4,184 Joules of heat for the temperature of one kilogram of water to increase 1°C. When compared to other substances such as metals, this is very high. For example, the specific heat capacity of copper is 385  Joules per kilogram which means that it only takes 385 Joules of heat to raise 1 kilogram of copper 1°C.

Therefore water, can absorb a large quantity of heat with very little changes in its temperature. This property of water helps the oceans and seas to serve as heat reservoirs by absorbing a large quantity of heat in hotter seasons and releasing these heat in colder seasons.

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Their enzymes have high optimal temperatures.

Explanation:

Archaea is one of the domain among the three domains of life. Archaea bacteria are the bacteria that may exist in the extreme environmental condition.

Bacteria re also found at extreme temperatures conditions under the hotsprings. This is because these enzymes of this bacteria work at high optimal temperatures. Their enzymes are active at high temperature condition that makes them metabolically active.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c).
