Rahul came across an animal having a streamlined and slippery body covered with scales. Which habitat does that animal belong to?

• A. Aerial
• B. Water
• C. Desert
• D. Grassland

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Water

Streamlined body is a type of body generally found in fishes and birds. Fishes, along with streamlibed bodies, have their bodies covered in scales. The body of a fish is long and thin and pointed at both ends. This is called a streamlined shape. A streamlined body helps the organism move faster through water. This is because it can cut through the water more efficiently.The scales of the fish protect them from attacks by predators, parasites and other injuries.
