Question

What would happen if the animals did not migrate or hibernate during cold season?

Answer 1

Answer:

Animals migrate in the winter season for many reasons like food, shelter, mating, and survival and some animals hibernate during the winter season to avoid low temperatures.

Explanation:

Migration and hibernation are the two important adapting phenomena where an animal avoids winter season to get food, mating, shelter and most importantly for their survival.

Migration is a phenomena in which animals like birds, bats, fishes etc. move in hotter regions from colder regions in search of food as it is harder to find food or shelter in the colder season.

Some animals hibernate and go underground for winter sleep which slows down their metabolic activity and helps in energy conservation.

If animals do not migrate and hibernate in the winter season then their rate of survival drops down very fast as they will not find food and if some animals don't hibernate then their body metabolism will get affected and they won't be able to survive in the winter season.

Answer 2

Answer:

• Animals go through a variety of incredible adaptations to survive the winter. They "migrate" in some cases. This indicates that they go to other locations where it is warmer or where there is food available.
• Many people believe that a bird's annual cycle of changes includes migration. Changes in the quantity of daylight and the weather affect the cycle.
• Birds are capable of incredibly lengthy flights. The Arctic tern, for instance, builds its nest not far from the North Pole in the summer. It travels as far south as Antarctica in the autumn. Each spring, it travels back north.
• Some animals spend all or a portion of the winter in hibernation. This is a unique, profound sleep. The animal's body temperature decreases, and its breathing and heartbeat become more leisurely. It is extremely energy-efficient.
• These animals eat more food in the fall and store it as body fat to prepare for the winter. During their hibernation, they utilize this fat as energy. Others save food for later consumption throughout the winter, such as nuts or acorns. Hibernation occurs in some bats, skunks, chipmunks, and bears.
