Aquatic species feel more comfortable in winter than in summer because -

Question

Options:

A . % of O2 in air decreases in summer due to high temperature

B . Atmospheric pressure decreases in summer leading to reduced solubility of gases in water

C . Solubility of gases in water decreases as the temperature increases due to increased Henry’s constant

D . Aquatic species feel skin burn due to increased temperature of the water.

Answer: Option C
:
C
According Henry’slaw ofsolubilityofgases -

P = K_{H} X

Withincreasein temperatureincreases,thus ‘x’ decreases given thepartialpressureof

O_{2}

remainssame.
