This because ice is less dense than water of particular temperature range.  Water reaches its maximum density at 4 degrees. Ice is important especially for aquatic  life in the polar regions. Polar bears give birth and hunt on sea ice and they need it to travel from one region to another. The ice edge in coastal areas is an important feeding ground for the walrus that uses the ice as diving platforms to feed on clams on the sea floor. Ice algae grow at the porous bottom of sea ice and form the base of the unique marine food web connected to sea ice

liberstina [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is - C. Plants.

Explanation:

As we know and also given that the pond is usually smaller and shallower than a lake. Due to this reason, ponds have plants growing on the bottom of them from one side to the other as they get enough light as there is only the photic zone in ponds.

In lakes, there are various zones present and the lakes are deep and big to the ponds and the bottom of the lakes did not get sunlight. Plants require sunlight to grow and lakes are usually too deep to get the sunlight for plants to grow on the bottom.
