Question

2.which animal has adapted to survive the harsh desert conditions? a. kangaroo rat b. dolphin c. panda

Explanation:

• Kangaroo rat: It has several adaptations for desert life. It can obtain water from its food (seeds) and has highly efficient kidneys to conserve water, producing very concentrated urine. It also stays in burrows during the hot day to avoid water loss through evaporation.
• Dolphin: Lives in aquatic (ocean) environments, not deserts. It has adaptations for an aquatic lifestyle like a streamlined body for swimming, blowhole for breathing, etc., which are not relevant to desert survival.
• Panda: Lives in forested mountain regions (e.g., bamboo forests in China). It has adaptations for a bamboo - eating diet (specialized teeth and digestive system to some extent for bamboo) and a forest habitat (thick fur for cooler mountain climates), not for deserts.

Answer:

A. Kangaroo rat
