Question

The anomalous behaviour of water advantageous to acquatic animals

Answer 1

Answer:

the anomolous behaviour of water is very advantageous to aquatic animals particularly in colder regions.

Explanation:

in colder regions during winter, the water in the upper layers which are more denser moves down and the water in the lower layers comes up as it's relatively less denser.

this happens till the temperature reaches 0°c. when the temperature reaches 0°c, the water in the upper layers get freezed and forms ice.

this later of ice floats on the water as it's less denser than water. ice is a bad conductor of heat. so, it doesn't allow the heat in the lower layers of water to go out.so, the water below doesn't freeze and it helps in the survival of aquatic animals.

thus, anomolous expansion of water is advantageous to aquatic animals.
