Water's high specific heat useful for: MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Water's high specific heat useful for:
A. Biological temperature regulation
B. Both
C. Neither
D. Engine cooling
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
High c = absorbs/releases large heat with small ΔT. Stabilizes engine temperatures and organism body temperatures. Memory tip: 'High specific heat = thermal buffer; water moderates climate and physiology'. Property application frequently tested in competitive exams.
