Which variety of mouse is more likely to survive in a dry desert? (1 point)
A. a mouse that needs more water
B. a mouse that needs less water
C. a mouse that has a shorter tail
D. a mouse that has a longer tail
B. a mouse that needs less water
In a dry desert environment, a mouse that requires less water to survive would have an advantage as water may be scarce. This adaptation would allow the mouse to be more likely to survive compared to a mouse that requires more water. Tail length would not have as much of an impact on survival in a dry desert environment.
