The answer is (2) maintaining a stable internal environment.

Homeostasis is the process by which an organism tries to stabilise the internal body metabolism in response to external disturbances or changes. Example, when a person goes out into the snow, his body process will get overwhelmed by the sudden drop in the temperature. The body will try to stabilise its internal temperature by producing more heat in response to the cold exterior.

damaskus [11]

Since the rate of flashing depends on the rate of reaction, it means that fireflies will flash slower during cold weather.

<h3>How does temperature affect rate of reactions?</h3>

Temperature affects the rate of reaction such that reactions are faster at high temperatures and slower at low temperatures.

Thus, since the rate of flashing in fireflies depends on the rate of reaction, cold temperature means that the rate of flashing will be low as compared to warm temperature.

In other words, fireflies will flash lower during cold weather and vice versa.
