Vedclass · Answer

(C) Water possesses a high $Specific \ Heat$ capacity,which means it requires a large amount of energy to raise its temperature by $1^{\circ}C$. Additionally,it has a high $Latent \ Heat$ of vaporization. These properties allow water to act as a thermal buffer,absorbing or releasing significant amounts of heat from the environment with minimal changes to its own temperature,thereby maintaining homeostasis in living organisms.

$(A)$ $ATP$	$(p)$ One or more sugar monomers
$(B)$ $DNA$	$(q)$ The main source of energy
$(C)$ Protein	$(r)$ Two strands of nucleotides

Which property of water allows it to absorb or lose heat from the surrounding environment without undergoing a significant change in its temperature?
