Answer 1

Heya!!

Animals of colder region and fishes of cold water have thicker layer of subcutaneous fat because it is necessary to withstand the high temparature prevailing in those colder areas .

Thanks!!❤

Answer 2

Answer:

Animals in colder regions have thick layers of fat, because fat acts as an insulator and doesn't let their body heat escape, which helps them survive in such extreme temperatures. Also, as not much vegetation is available in colder regions, the layers store nutrients that help the animal when needed.
