Answer: D.) It allows water to resist freezing and thawing cycles.

The ability of the water molecule to absorb and retain heat is called as heat capacity of water, because of this property the temperature of water remains the same for long, irrespective of the external environment. It allows water to resist freezing and thawing cycles because water molecules will resist change in it's temperature. This temperature regulation will prevent instant heating and cooling, hence, will provide suitable environment for the survival of marine organisms.

Another characteristic of gymnosperms is that they do not have bright flowers. The Greek word for gymnosperm literally translates to naked fruit. The seeds of these plants are open to the air and as such they are directly pollinated by the wind.
