Question

Which of the following is not a stenothermal organism?

• A. Mango tree
• B. Snow leopard
• C. Human
• D. Tuna fish

Answer 1

The correct option is C Human

A vast majority of organisms are restricted to a narrow range of temperatures. Such organisms are called stenothermal. The levels of thermal tolerance of different species determine to a large extent their geographical distribution.

Human can survive a wide range of temperature. So, humans are not stenothermal organism. Mango trees are seen in tropical areas, Snow leopards are seen at high altitude in alpine like biome and Tuna fish is seen in seas of tropical areas.
