Solution

The correct option is C 1, 2 and 4
Aquatic animals have various structural modifications in their body that enable them to adapt to aquatic habitats.
Their body is streamlined so that it can reduce friction in water and thus help them to move easily.
They have fins as locomotory organs. Fins help in moving forward, turning, keeping an upright position or stopping.
Webbed feet are ideal for birds that swim, on the water's surface or under.
Usually birds have hollow bones that help them in flight.
Animals living in very cold conditions have a layer of fat under their skin as insulation.
