**Step-by-Step Solution:** **(a) Why are fishes on the surface in water than in the depth in summer?** 1. **Understanding Fish Behavior**: Fish are aquatic animals that require oxygen to survive. The availability of dissolved oxygen in water influences their behavior. 2. **Henry's Law**: According to Henry's Law, the solubility of gases in liquids is inversely related to temperature. This means that at lower temperatures, gases (like oxygen) are more soluble in water. ...
