There are several properties of water that make Earth a suitable environment for life, including water's high boiling point and
high heat capacity. Which best explains why this characteristic of water is important for marine life? A.) It allows water to remain in its liquid form even at relatively high temperatures.
B.) It allows water to vaporize easily, powering the water cycle.
C.) It allows water to be denser, making it easy for living organisms to move through.
D.) It allows water to resist freezing and thawing cycles.
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.
Explanation: According to the graph, on day 20 there are more aliens in the thin form than in either of the other two forms. So the form with the highest probability is the thin form.
The appropriate answer is e. gymnosperm. Gymnosperms have seeds that are not protected by an ovary or fruit. A popular example of a gymnosperm are conifers. 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.
