Answer is given below:

Explanation:

  • Igloo is made with ice. The normal heat of ice is 2108 J / kg K.
  • Since ice is a good insulator of heat, it maintains body heat inside the igloo. This causes the temperature to rise from the outside.
  • The shape of the dome of the igloo is less resistant to wind.
  • It is therefore an effective alternative to home design.
