Question

An animal that uses ultra-violet radiations for locating food and boundary of its territory is

• A. Desert iguana
• B. Desert frog
• C. Kangaroo rat
• D. Sea snake

Answer 1

The correct option is A Desert iguana

• The Desert Iguana can see ultraviolet light. The desert iguana uses this sensitivity to find the scent marker of other desert iguanas, which are otherwise difficult to detect from a distance.
• Desert iguanas eat mainly leaves, buds and flowers, and flowers of the desert that are often inconspicuous to our eyes, but they absorb ultraviolet strongly, making them visible to inguanas.

So, the correct option is 'Desert Iguana'.
