Answer:

When liquid water is cooled, it contracts until a temperature of approximately 4 degrees Celsius is reached. After that, it expands slightly until it reaches the freezing point, and then when it freezes it expands by approximately 9%. When water freezes, water molecules form a crystalline structure maintained by hydrogen bonding. Ice is less dense than water because the orientation of hydrogen bonds causes molecules to push farther apart, which lowers the density.

They fill similar roles in their ecosystems to other grazers and browsers. Their size means they eat a LOT, and also means that generally only their offspring are preyed on. So, recycling and trampling high-carbon foliage into fertilizer is their main function.
