Answer:

High pressure inside the giant planet

Explanation:

As we move in the interior of the giant planet, the pressure and temperature in the interior of the planet increases. Since, the giant planets have hardly any solid surface and thus they are mostly constituted of atmosphere.

Also, the gravitational forces keep even the lightest of the matter bound in it contributing to the large mass of the planet.

If we look at the order of the magnitude of the temperature of these giant planets than nothing should be able to stay in liquid form but as the depth of the planet increases with the increase in temperature, pressure also increases which keeps the particle of the matter in compressed form.

Thus even at such high order of magnitude water is still found in liquid state in the interior of the planet.

Which of the following would be a good question that could be scientifically investigated? What is the best advice a parent can
Nesterboy [21]
<span>"Does lack of sunlight affect plant growth?"

This question can be investigated with procedures according to
the Scientific Method, because "lack of sunlight" can be arranged
unambiguously, and "affected plant growth" can be identified
unambiguously.

The other questions involve words or phrases with ambiguous definitions,
that can mean different things to different people, and would be hard to
agree on, like  "</span><span>best advice",  "sound quality",  and  "happiness in life".</span>
