Question

montana experiences temperature ranges from 105°f in summer to -40°f in winter. an evolutionary biologist studying organisms in this region would most likely focus on which adaptive strategy? organisms that only reproduce during moderate temperature periods organisms with physiological or behavioral adaptations to extreme temperature fluctuations organisms that maintain constant body temperature regardless of environment organisms that migrate to avoid any temperature variation

Explanation:

Organisms with physiological or behavioral adaptations to extreme temperature are well - suited to handle Montana's wide temperature range. Migrating organisms avoid temperature variation rather than adapt to it directly. Organisms that maintain constant body temperature regardless of the environment are endotherms, but this is not the most relevant adaptation here. Organisms that only reproduce during moderate temperature periods are not focusing on extreme temperature adaptation.

Answer:

Organisms with physiological or behavioral adaptations to extreme temperature
