Question 6 • Biology

Which adaptation helps polar bears maintain a constant internal temperature (thermal homeostasis) in cold weather?

Answer
A
finding shade underground
B
white skin
C
blubber
D
three layers of fur

Explanation

Blubber is a thick layer of fat beneath the skin that insulates polar bears and reduces heat loss in cold water and air. This helps keep their internal temperature stable. Three layers of fur also provide insulation, but blubber is the adaptation that best matches the choice for maintaining thermal homeostasis.
