Would life be possible if ponds freeze from the bottom to the top?
Would life be possible if ponds freeze from the bottom to the top? If water were most dense as a solid, lakes would freeze from the bottom up, eventually freezing solid. In that case, little or nothing would survive in the lake. Most lakes and ponds don't completely freeze because the ice (and eventually snow) on the surface acts to insulate the water below.
