When the upper water layers warm in the summer months, they become separated from deep water by a transition zone known as a thermocline. In a thermocline, the temperature decreases rapidly with small increases in depth. This phenomenon linking temperature change with depth is called temperature stratification.

Answer:

As we move down in the ocean, the temperature decreases. The sunlight reaches the upper surface of water and heats it.The temperature changes as the depth of the ocean increase.

The reason is sunlight does not reaches the lower part of the ocean. The density is also keeps on increasing as we move down and is maximum at 4 degree Celsius.The temperature of the water also depends on the season and climate.

Which type of gangrene follows the cessation of blood flow to tissue after crushing injury, embolism, tourniquet, or tight banda
Zepler [3.9K]
A wet gangrene is a medical condition that occurs whenever injury from burns or trauma from a body part is crushed or squeezed which rapidly cuts off blood supply to the affected area causing tissue death and increased the risk of infection. It is called wet because of the pus that is formed. Wet gangrene infection can spread quickly throughout the body and cause life-threatening conditions if not treated quickly, 


Gangrene is a condition that occurs whenever body tissues die. It primarily caused by a loss of blood supply due to an illness, infection or injury. Oftentimes, this medical condition occurs in the fingers and limbs. They, however, can occur inside the human body damaging organs and muscles.

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Dehydration

Explanation:

Dehydration is the condition of the body which involves the loss of body fluid compared to the amount of water the body gets. Water is an important constituent of the human body making up to about two-third of the body. The normal body metabolism is affected when the amount of water in the body drops below the required level of water necessary for optimal functioning of the body.  

Athletes usually suffer from dehydration, most especially long distance runners, as they tend to lose a lot of body fluid through sweating while the body tries to regulate the body temperature during the race. When the body is dehydrated, the heart works harder to pump blood to various parts of the body leading to loss of strength of the muscles.  

Common signs a dehydrated person shows include feeling tired and lightheaded, loss of body weight etc.
