It's an important part of the bird's ability to maintain its body temperature. 
Air is a poor conductor of heat, so the air trapped among the feathers
prevents the loss of heat in cold atmosphere, and prevents overheating
in hot atmosphere.  Much like our wearing several layers of clothing.

Which of these statements best describes a similarity between photosynthesis and dissolving in the sea?
Mama L [17]

The correct answer is D. Both absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

The process of photosynthesis is carried out using atmospheric carbon dioxide by green plants. Many gases including carbon dioxide are dissolved in seawater. Some of the carbon dioxide gas remains in dissolved state but most of the carbon dioxide is reacts with water to form carbonic acid. Dissolved gases in seawater make balance with atmosphere by mixing of the surface by wind and waves. Therefore, both photosynthesis and sea water take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
