Answer:

Thick layer of fat under the skin of animals to keep them warm is known as Blubber.

Explanation:

  1. All marine mammals have a substantial layer of fat underneath their skin, known as blubber or adipose tissue.
  2. Animals like seals, whales, and walruses are completely covered in blubber, with the exception of their fins, flippers, and flukes.
  3. Blubber, a thick, insulating coating of fat beneath the skin that helps keep body heat in and the cold of the air or water out, is a crucial adaption for marine mammals.
  4. The key distinctions between blubber and fat are its blood supply and consistency.
  5. Blubber has a far higher concentration of blood vessels than fat and is much denser due to its composition of a combination of lipids and collagen fibres. Layers of blubber can be extremely thick.
