Why is it good for aquatic organisms that live in cold climates that ice floats?

Biology
1 answer:
Zielflug [23.3K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer;

-The less dense, the more the ice will float, allowing animals to stay afloat and not in the water

Explanation;

-When water freezes, water molecules form a crystalline structure maintained by hydrogen bonding. Solid water, or ice, is less dense than liquid water. Ice is less dense than water because the orientation of hydrogen bonds causes molecules to push farther apart, which lowers the density.

-This means that ice floats on water and that lakes freeze from the top down to the bottom.This is vital for animals that live on ice, as their habitats would be greatly reduced or not exist at all if ice sank.

Which correctly lists the three parts of soil that are classified by their particle size? bedrock, humus, and clay clay, bedrock
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Sand, clay, and silt

Explanation:

The categorization of soil particles by size can be made into three classes including sand (particle size between 0.05 mm to 2 mm), silt, (particle sizes between 0.002 mm to 0.05 mm) and clay (particle sizes lesser than 0.002 mm), larger particles such as stones, pebbles, boulders and rock other fragments are left out of the textural classification because of their inertness

The combination of the three particle sizes can be found in most soils and their relative proportion defines the texture of a given sample of soil.

Describe how ions, water and sugar are obtained and<br> transported through plants.<br><br> 6 mark
Alona [7]

Answer:

Water and ions are obtained from soil and glucose is obtained from leaves.

Explanation:

Water and ions are absorbed by the plant through roots from the soil whereas glucose is produced in the leaves during the process of photosynthesis. Vascular bundles such as xylem and phloem transported water, ions and glucose within the body. Xylem moves water from roots to the upper water of plants such as leaves, stem etc whereas phloem transported glucose from leaves to other parts of plant.
