Hello! Your answer would be C, They regulate body temperature through behavioral mechanisms.

An endothermic animal is one which is capable of maintaining its own body temperature. They do this through physiological mechanisms, which is what the last choice is saying - these involve things such as hormones, sweating, etc.

These endothermic animals are considered warm blooded. This is because they can make their own body heat. Humans and other mammals are endothermic. We generate our own heat - we don't rely on sunbathing or shade to cool down or heat up our <u>internal</u> body temperature.

Hope this helps!

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Divergent evolution;

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Divergent evolution is the process of two or more related species becoming more and more dissimilar. In this type of evolution groups of species from the same common ancestor evolve and accumulate differences, resulting in the formation of new species.
For example; <em><u>The red fox and the kit fox. The red fox and the kit fox both have a common ancestor but have gone through the process of divergent evolution. It has adapted to its mixed farmland and forest environment. Its red color helps it to blend in with the trees. </u></em>
<em><u>The kit fox is sandy in appearance because it lives in the desert. It also has larger ears than the red fox and its larger ears help the fox release excess body heat in the desert.</u></em>
