5. Why do fish in polar regions go deeper during winter
Answers
Explanation:
Six's thermometer is a registering thermometer which can record the maximum and minimum temperatures reached over a period of time, for example 24 hours. It is used to record the extremes of temperature at a location, for instance in meteorology and horticulture.

2.Why is it hotter at the equator than it is at the poles? ... Because the sun's rays hit the earth's surface at a higher angle at the equator. e. Because the sun is always directly overhead at the equator.
3.All penguins have a white belly and a dark, mostly black, back. This is a type of camouflage to keep them safe when they swim, because it makes them blend in with their background. The white and black colors make an effect called countershading.
4.Tropical rain forests have a type of tropical climate in which there is no dry season—all months have an average precipitation value of at least 60 mm (2.4 in). In rain forest climates the dry season is very short, and rainfall is normally heavy throughout the year.
5.fish in polar regions go deeper under the water because in winter the water above the pond freeze
