Answer 2

Hello there!

Here are the choices for your question:

a.  thick fur  

b.  retention of dead leaves  

c.  dense hair  

d.  production of chemicals to ward off insects

The answer to your question is d. production of chemicals to ward off insects.

• A thick fur helps in maintaining or trapping air inside thus preventing the air to move releasing heat through convection.
• The retention of dead leaves in plants is called marcescence. This helps in regulating temperature and water stress in plants.
• Dense hair, as in humans, is similar to the function of a thick fur. Both are helpful in survival in cold temperatures.

I hope this will hep you!
