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.

VikaD [51]

Examples of biting and chewing pests are snails, slugs, caterpillar, Helicoverpa, diamond black moth, beetles , termites, leaf worms, grass hoppers etc.

Examples of piercing insects are  lace bugs, aphids, white flies, glassy winged sharp shooter, false chinch bugs, Bargrada bug, mealy bug, Eugenia psyllid,  Pittosporum psyllid,  Tipu psyllid etc.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Pests that affect crops have different feeding habits. Some pests belong to the type biting and chewing pests. These pests bite into the plant parts and chew them. This will leave circular holes in the leaves and semicircular holes in the leaf edges.

Piercing and sucking insects pierce into the plant parts and suck the sap. Removal of sap turns the plants yellow, and wilted. The growth might get stunted and in severe cases the plant may die off.
