Question

The climate in northern Alaska suddenly changes from a very cold climate to a warm climate. Two species of wolves live in this area. Species X has long fur and doesn't shed to regulate internal temperature. Species Y has short fur and sheds to regulate internal temperature. Which species is most likely to survive this climate change?
Question 1 options:

Species X because its fur will help it stay cool.

Both species will survive because they have fur to help maintain constant internal temperatures.

Species Y because it sheds fur to help maintain constant internal temperatures.

Species X because it can move around the environment to stay cool.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C. Species Y because it sheds fur to help maintain constant internal temperatures.

Explanation:

The specie Y is able to survive because they have short fur and able to remove the fur according to the external environment and body temperature is decreased while specie X will die because of high body temperature due thick fur and hot external environment. So specie Y is the only survival in this hot climate.
