Which statement correctly describes one way that the properties of water affect heat and temperature? Water retains more heat th

an other materials, making coastal ecosystems warmer year-round. Water absorbs heat when it freezes, helping to insulate lakes and ponds from cold temperatures. Water absorbs heat when it changes to vapor, helping to keep animals cool through perspiration. Water retains less heat than other materials, keeping aquatic ecosystems cooler than those on land.

I believe the correct statement is that Water absorbs heat when it changes to vapor, helping to keep animals cool through perspiration. Water has a high heat of vaporization, the amount of energy needed to change one gram of a liquid substance to gas at constant temperature. In humans and other organisms, the evaporation of sweat, which is 90% water, cools the body to maintain a steady temperature.

Answer: Water retains more heat than other materials, making coastal ecosystems warmer year-round.

Explanation:

The water retains more heat than any other material because it has high specific heat. The specific heat can be define as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the substance of 1 gram to 1 degree Celsius. The water has high specific heat which indicates that it takes more heat energy to increase the temperature of water as compared to other substance.

It takes several hours to lower down the temperature of the water. The retain heat in water keeps the coastal ecosystem warm year round which favors the survival of the marine animals even in winters.

Many marine organisms depend on up welling to bring nutrients to the surface. How might El Nino affect a fisherman's way of life
svp [43]
During an El Nino, warm water gathers along the West coast of South America, so the nutrient rich water is no longer being upwelled. keeping in mind that cold water sinks and warm water rises, usually the warm water near coastal regions would not be full of nutrients compared to the cold water where the nutrients fall. therefore, more fish will be located or migrate to areas of this nutrient rich cold water instead. So, many fishermen would not have high yields of fish ultimately affecting their way of life and money. also a lot of these fish that remain at the surface would not be as healthy or nutrient rich.

hope that helps! :))

the rapid depolarization phase of the action potentials of myocardial contractile cells is due to which ion(s)?
Oduvanchick [21]

The rapid depolarization phase of the action potentials of myocardial contractile cells is due to Na⁺ ion.

The depolarization is caused when Na⁺ ions rapidly enters into neuron through open sodium channels. Sodium ions plays important role in various physiological process such as regulating blood volume, ph regulation,  maintaining blood pressure, energy metabolism,osmotic equilibrium, excitation-contraction coupling, maintenance of cellular homeostasis, development and growth.
