Option (A) Torpor is the correct answer
Organisms that undergo hibernation have the ability to slow down their metabolism so as to lower the core temperature. This process is known as Torpor.
<h3>Why is torpor important for organisms undergoing hibernation?</h3>
Torpor is a state in animals where they lower all their metabolic activities and bodily functions so as to keep the body temperature low.
It is done by the animals to conserve resources in conditions where scarcity of food is there.
Some birds undergo torpor to conserve fat in the body.
Some animals use this technique of torpor to survive competition with other species.
These organisms come back to normal physiology when the conditions become favorable.

<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>
