• Concept 3.2: Four emergent properties of
water contribute to Earth’s fitness for life
• Cohesion
– Is the bonding of a high percentage of the
molecules to neighboring molecules
– Is due to hydrogen bonding

Moderation of Temperature
• Water moderates air temperature
– By absorbing heat from air that is warmer and
releasing the stored heat to air that is cooler
• Temperature
– Measures the intensity of heat

• Since ice floats in water
– Life can exist under the frozen surfaces of
lakes and polar seas
