Water Habitat High Thermal Stability Due Hydrogen Bonds

Front Why is water a useful habitat?
Back Water as a habitat
  • Its high thermal stability due to the hydrogen bonds helps keep the temperature stable - good environment for life
  • Because ice is less dense than liquid water, it floats forming an insulating layer - prevents seas from freezing
