Q392

Which of the following animal is heat resistant?

A.
Cow
B.
Buffalo
Answer
C.
Sheep
D.
Camel

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
Buffalo is heat resistant.
The buffalo is so well suited to hot and humid climates and muddy terrain due to its morphological, anatomical, and behavioural characteristics.
To thermoregulate, they rely on wallowing in water or mud to cool the body. These animals lack functional sweat glands and are almost incapable of panting.
