1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
Very small animals are rarely found in polar regions because:
1. | Being smaller in size makes them highly vulnerable to predation. |
2. | They have a larger surface area relative to their volume. |
3. | Small size makes long distance migration difficult. |
4. | Small sized animals lack insulating body layers. |
