The lake becoming ice is due to the water (freezing)

Answer:

Freezing

Explanation:

During cold winter months, the water on the surface of lakes/water bodies changes its state from liquid to solid state (ice) and the process is known as freezing. This phenomenon helps the flora and fauna living under such water bodies survive even in extremely cold weather. The ice being less dense than water floats on the surface of lake and acts as a shield. This shield of ice acts as an insulator and restricts the outside cold waves from entering the water beneath the ice cover and maintains optimum temperature inside. Hence due to the change of state of water, the flora and fauna is able to survive even in harsh winter season.

Which of the following is an example of a closed system?
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer: B

Explanation: A closed system can be defined as a system that does not allow for an exchange of matter with its surroundings.

An estuary where fresh water and ocean water mix is not a good example of a closed system because fresh water and ocean water mix out in the open and matter is exchanged.

A living single-called organism such as phytoplankton does not constitute as a closed system because in order for the phytoplankton to be considered alive it needs to interact with its surroundings i.e light from the sun so photosynthesis (converting light energy into chemical energy to be used by organism) can occur. This also happens out in the open

A river that flows into the ocean does not fit into the closed system definition. This is because a river that flows into the ocean allows for itself (matter) to mix with that of the ocean in an open space (rivermouth).

Therefore option B is the answer because it fits the definition. A chemical reaction within the deep ocean organisms that allows them to glow happens within (inside) the organism, making this system closed, hence there is no exchange of matter with surroundings.
