How do fishes survive in frozen lakes?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Fishes survive in pond even when the atmospheric temperature is below 0°C. It is because of anomalous expansion of water. When the temperature falls below 0°C water changes into ice and rises to the top and ice being poor conductor of heat helps to keep water below it at 4°C and fish can live in pond water.
