Correct answer: D
Polar seal generally has shorter ears and limbs (extremities) to minimize heat loss. This is with reference to Allen's rule.
Kangaroo rat exhibits physiological adaptation.
Desert lizard shows behavioural adaptation. They lack the physiological ability to cope-up with extreme temperature but manage the body temperature by behavioural means.
Marine fishes at depth are adapted biochemically to survive in great depths in ocean.
