Question
which adaptation does the wood frog use to survive the cold temperatures?
□ freezes itself
□ uses camouflage
□ hibernates in a tree
□ migrates to another place
Wood frogs are known for their unique ability to survive freezing temperatures. They produce cryoprotectants (like glucose) that prevent ice - crystal formation in their cells. When the temperature drops, they essentially "freeze" (a large portion of their body water turns to ice), and their heart stops. But when it warms up, they thaw and resume normal functions. Camouflage is more for predator avoidance, hibernating in a tree is not typical for wood frogs (they usually hibernate on the forest floor), and they do not migrate long distances for cold survival.
