which animal undergo aestivation and hibernation
Answers
Answer:
Aestivation
Aestivation occurs in animals living in deserts and tropical regions. This is done to protect themselves from hot and dry climate, and due to the scarcity of food water. This can be seen in earthworms, molluscs, arthropods, reptiles and amphibians. A lungfish can aestivate and survive without water for three years. The sole motive of aestivation is to prevent water loss or dehydration and to save energy.
Hibernation
Hibernation is the condition in which the animals go dormant during winters by lowering their metabolic activities. This can be seen in reptiles, fish and amphibians. To combat the problem of food shortage during hibernation, these animals eat a lot of food and store in the form of excess fat. This is supplied in the form of energy while sleeping.
