Question

Choose the correct option for the matching:

Column – I	Column – II
A. Daphnia	i. Basking
B. Desert Lizard	ii. Blubber
C. Aquatic mammals	iii. Cyclomorphosis
D. Sea gulls	iv. Eliminates salts through nostrils

• A. A – ii, B – iii, C – iv, D – i
• B. A – iii, B – ii, C – i, D – iv
• C. A – iii, B – i, C – ii, D – iv
• D. A – iii, B – i, C – iv, D – ii

Hint:

Match adaptations to habitat: blubber (cold), basking (heat), nasal salt glands (marine).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

- Daphnia exhibits cyclomorphosis as a response to environmental stress.
- Desert lizards use basking for thermoregulation.
- Aquatic mammals have blubber to insulate against cold.
- Sea gulls excrete excess salts through nasal glands.
