high specific heat
What is the tendency of matter to resist change in motion?
Inertia: the property of matter that resists changes in motion.

Why water tends to resist changes in temperature?
Water is highly cohesive. Its molecules tend to resist increases in their motion. When water is heated, some of the energy is used to disturb the hydrogen bonds between neighboring molecules.
What name is given to the property by which objects resist changes in motion?
Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion. This is, in essence, the statement of Newton's first law. The concept of inertial is quantified by mass. We say an object with twice the mass has twice the inertia. See also the related question link.
Why is earths greenhouse effect important to life on the earth?
Thermal inertia is the tendency to resist temperature changes. This results in thermal equilibrium, which means that the Earth and its climates don't have broad temperature changes from one day to the next. This relative temperature stability is important because many organisms would not be able to tolerate the broad temperature changes from one day to what would otherwise exist.
Which property of objects causes them to resist changes to their motion?
Inertia is an objects ability to resist motion. I think of inertia as an object's' mass (different from weight). Newton's second law (F = mass times acceleration) describes the interaction between force and an objects ability to resist motion.
