Do you think that some of these characteristics can be adapted for both regions?

Answer:(i) Diets heavy on fruits → Tropical rainforests (ii) White fur → Polar regions (iii) Need to migrate → Polar regions (iv) Loud voice → Tropical rainforests (v) Sticky pads on feet → Tropical rainforests (vi) Layer of fat under skin → Polar regions (vii) Wide and large paws → Polar regions (viii) Bright colours → Tropical rainforests (ix) Strong tails → Tropical rainforests (x) Long and large beak → Tropical rainforests No, none of the above characteristics can be adapted for both regions
