A frog has longer hind limbs than the fore limbs.

Aerial animals are those that can fly, like birds, some insects, and bats. They have special features like wings and feathers that help them fly in the sky.

• An adaptation is like when an animal changes something about itself, like how it looks or acts, to help it live better in its home.
• For example, polar bears have thick fur to stay warm in cold places.
• So, when animals make these changes to stay safe and healthy in their habitats, we call it an adaptation.

Animals live in places that provide food, water, and shelter which is called their habitat. Shelter is a place where animals stay safe and protected from weather and other dangers.

Correct answer: C. In mixing with the surroundings(providing camouflage)

• Camouflage: 
  The stripes break up their body outline against the dappled light and shadows in their habitat, making it difficult for predators or prey to spot them.

  Tigers and leopards use their stripes to sneak up on prey by blending in with the vegetation. 
• Protection from predators: 
  The stripes also help them hide from potential threats by making it harder to identify their shape and movement.

A stick insect blends with its surroundings to protect itself from its enemies which is called Camouflage.

Blubber is a thick layer of fat found in animals like whales, seals, and polar marine mammals. It provides insulation, stores energy, and helps maintain body temperature in extremely cold regions.

Note (concept clarity):

• Fur → common in land animals (polar bear, arctic fox)
• Blubber → common in marine animals (seal, whale)
