Explain the role of given adaptive feature in each of the following case

B-Many desert reptiles excrete urine in the form of insoluble uric acid
C-Penguines have a thich layer of densely pack feather
D-Eyes of aquatic animals are positioned in a top of the head
Answers
Answer:
A.The lotus plants have hollow and spongy stem filled with air. This makes them light and helps them to float on water
B.Water can be reabsorbed from the bladder resulting in postrenal concentration of urine; insoluble uric acid can be excreted which allows for water conservation
C.Penguin feathers are short, overlapping and densely packed. The outer part of the feather is waterproof while the inner down section traps an insulating layer of air, keeping the penguin warm in the sometimes freezing water.
D.the fish hangs motionless in the water, with its body in a horizontal position and its eyes looking upward. The green pigments in its eyes may filter out sunlight coming directly from the sea surface, helping the barreleye spot the bioluminescent glow of jellies or other animals directly overhead
