Vedclass · Answer

(D) Water acts as a thermal buffer in living organisms. It possesses a very high specific heat capacity,which means it can absorb or release a large amount of heat with minimal change in its own temperature. Additionally,its high latent heat of vaporization helps in cooling the body. These properties allow water to distribute heat uniformly throughout the body,maintaining a stable internal environment (homeostasis).
