Question 3 • Fall 24 GSE Biology A IC

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

Answer
t
three layers of fur
b
blubber
f
finding shade underground
w
white skin

Explanation

Blubber is a thick layer of fat beneath a polar bear’s skin that insulates its body and reduces heat loss in cold conditions. This helps maintain a stable internal temperature. Three layers of fur also provide insulation, but the best choice here is blubber.
