Briefly describe the four emergent properties of water that contribute to earth's suitability for life. 1. Cohesion of water molecules 2. Moderation of temperatue by water 3. Expansion upon freezing 4. Versatility as a solvent

Why is water so important to living organisms? Be sure to discuss the four emergent properties of water discussed in your textbook.

A) Explain why temperature is such an important player in growth and energy balance in aquatic organisms (i.e., what is the temperature actually affecting? B) If an aquatic organism (say, a bass) has a limited food supply, why would it be beneficial to occupy cooler water temperatures?
