Question

Animals living in cold regions have?

• A. legs to run fast
• B. fat for additional insulation
• C. long necks
• D. long eye lashes

Answer 1

The correct option is B fat for additional insulation

• Animals that live in colder areas have to protect their bodies against extremely cold environmental conditions.
• Their bodies cannot withstand such cold climates.
• So, they have a thick layer of fat beneath their skin as insulation and thick white fur over their bodies. This provides an additional layer over their skin.
• As a result, the air gets trapped in this layer and it cannot pass through it, keeping their bodies insulated against the excessive cold.

So, option B " fat for additional insulation" is the correct answer.
