Animals living in cold regions have?

  1. legs to run fast

  2. fat for additional insulation

  3. long necks

  4. long eye lashes


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

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 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.
