Question

In which type of climate can you not expect to see reptiles?

(a) hot and dry
(b) very cold
(c) hot and wet
(d) hot and humid

Answer 1

(b) very cold
During the day, reptiles keep their bodies warm by absorbing the solar radiation. At night, they seek shelter to keep their bodies warm. However, this is not possible in polar regions, which has a very cold climate. Therefore, we do not expect to see reptiles in very cold climate.
