Describe the difference in temperature range between small bodies of water and open ocean areas. What adaptations do you expect to see in the animals living in either body of water?
What will be an ideal response?
Small bodies of water are subject to extreme ranges of temperature because heat can be gained or lost fairly quickly. In the open ocean temperature ranges are much narrower. As a result, animals living in areas having large temperature ranges will tend to be adapted for these changes. Animals living in the open ocean will be intolerant to significant changes in the ambient temperature.
