Solution

The correct option is B scales
Reptiles were the first class of organisms to adapt to life on land. They have tough scaly, dry and rough skin which makes it suitable for terrestrial adaptation. They also tend to have efficient excretory systems, removing as much moisture as possible before releasing waste. This typically leads to firm feces and highly concentrated urine.
