Their bodies have adapted to cold climates. Polar bears have dark or black skin under their think fur which help to absorb the suns rays. They have broad feet to walk on ice or snow. Their fur repels water & is very dense or thick to hold in body heat.
Seals & whales have thick blubber to hold in the warmth of their bodies. Also many animals that live in snowy climates have white fur to blend in to their surroundings. This makes it easier to hunt other animals & also stay hidden if they are prey.

Answer:

Animals lose body heat through the surface of the skin. The more surface area an animal has, the more efficiently it loses body heat. Hares and other animals living in cold regions have shorter ears and limbs than their warmer weather counterparts, and many animals have very compact forms to minimize heat loss.

Answer:

Last summer, I was delighted to spend the vacation with my family in Italy. When we arrived at the majestic hotel where we would spend our holidays, you could tell from our faces that we were famished and exhausted. After taking a cold and relaxing shower, I joined my family at the dinning hall, to enjoy a sumptuous meal of Spaghetti Bolognaise. It was a mouth-watering dish, filled with different shapes, sizes, and colors of garnishing. It was a fantastic meal and I could tell that the rest of the crew also enjoyed it.

This question is actually a matter of opinion. Some would say he shows strength by knowing he has to sacrifice six of his men when he has already lost so many. They say it shows he's a strong character and a determined leader. That he's willing to sacrifice anything for his cause. That's a very strong character trait. Some, however, would say it shows he's weak. Not only did he know it wouldn't be him who died, he also didn't tell his remaining men. He let six of them die. He knew they would and he did not say anything. I guess whatever side you take is up to you.

Which ball is moving with the fastest speed?
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Ball 1 is moving at the fastest speed.. This is because Ball 1, at 100cm distance takes a time of just 10 seconds to cover the distance of 100cm. This is the fastest speed because:

Speed= Distance/Time

Ball 1= 100cm/10= 10 (speed)

Ball 2= 50cm/20= 2 1/2 (speed)

Ball 3= 100cm/20= 5 (speed)

Ball 4= 50/10= 5 (speed)

Therefore Ball 1 has the greatest speed overall.
