Large bodies of water such as lakes and oceans do not quickly fluctuate in temperature what is the reason for this phenomenon

d. water has a high heat capacity

Explanation:

water can absorb a large amount of energy without a large rise in temperature. This is called heat capacity. As the sun shines on bodies of water, they absorbs great amount of its energy without a large fluctuation in temperature.

the two answers are a, the population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island, and c, the trait for large beaks will be passed on to future generations through natural selection. the reason for that is because if the birds that have beaks developed for eating small seeds lose all of their food, they will go hungry and eventually starve because they physically cannot eat the large seeds, therefore making the population of large beaked birds higher. also, if the trait of large beaks are dominant on the island over small beaks, then over time the large beaked birds will reproduce more and more, while the smaller beaked birds will reproduce less and less because they can't survive with the food provided. that leads to the trait of small beaks disappearing and the trait of large beaks taking over the island.
