C)migration

D) mimicry​

Answer 1

Answer:

mimicry

Explanation:

Mimicry, in biology, phenomenon characterized by the superficial resemblance of two or more organisms that are not closely related taxonomically. This resemblance confers an advantage—such as protection from predation—upon one or both organisms by which the organisms deceive the animate agent of natural selection.

Answer 2

okay, the answer is D. mimicry. i mean- think about it: it cant be camouflage because like- camaflouge is where they hide like the stick bug. the stick bug camouflages into the tree. like- the stick bug has the same detail, looks like the tree. so it cant be camouflage. it cant be hibernation because snakes dont hibernate only fur animals do. snakes have scales. it cant be migration because only insects like butterflies, birds, and so on, only they migrate. snakes dont have wings. now we are left with D. if you think its A or D it can be but its D i got an A+ on my test with this question.
