Answer: The correct answer for the blank is- A) Have hairs.

As per the University of Michigan, there are primarily three characteristics/ features that are unique to mammals. These are as follows-

1) Presence of hairs on body.

2) Presence of mammary glands ( primarily used of feeding the neonates).

3) Presence of three bones in the middle ear ( that is Malleus, incus, and stapes).

The most significant function of hairs in mammals is that they provide insulation against cold by conserving heat of body. In certain nocturnal animals ( which are active during night time), they serve as sensory organs.

Thus, option A) is the right answer.

Which best illustrates a result of natural selection?
Yanka [14]

Answer: The correct answer is -

D) giraffes having increasingly longer necks over time.

Natural selection is an evolutionary mechanism that was proposed by Darwin.

According to this mechanism, organisms that are better capable of adapting to their changing environmental conditions, survive and increase their number through reproduction whereas other are eliminated from the population.

Example - Long neck of Giraffe, which is much elongated, lofty stature, that was beautifully adapted for browsing on the higher tree branches. This was an adaptation with slow and gradual change in the gene frequency as the lower vegetation was eaten by other animals. Due to this, giraffes had to search for other source (that was higher tree branches).

This is considered as a peculiar example of natural selection.
