Which of the following describes an impact of the specific heat of water on the planet in the life forms that exist on it?

A: places near the sea show high temperature variation

B: inland cities have moderate temperatures throughout the year

C: marine life experiences sudden spikes and drops in temperature

D: sweat requires a lot of thermal energy to be absorbed to evaporate

Sweat requires a lot of thermal energy to be absorbed to evaporate.

I just took the test, but basically since water has such a high specific heat capacity it works rly well for absorbing the heat off your skin since it has the highest heat capacity of any liquid. Heat capacity is how much energy it takes to increase the temperature of a substance by 1 degree celsius. Water needs to absorb the most energy of any liquid to increase by 1 degree, so it stays colder longer. Thus, sweat good for toasty life forms.

D. Sweat requires a lot of thermal energy to be absorbed and evaporate

Explanation: I just took the test and thats the correct answer :)
