Solution
The correct option is A True
Generally, the volume of substances increases on heating and decreases on cooling. But when water is heated from 0oC to 4oC, its volume decreases and increases only after 4oC. This unusual behaviour of water from 0oC to 4oC is known as anomalous expansion of water.
