Question

what is the main benefit that hibernation provides to animals during difficult seasons? (1 point)
makes food easier to find
increases chance of meeting mates
reduces energy needed for survival
protects young from predators

Explanation:

Hibernation is a state of inactivity in which an animal's metabolic rate drops. This reduces the amount of energy an animal needs to survive during times when food is scarce, such as winter. It does not make food easier to find, increase mate - meeting chances, or directly protect young from predators.

Answer:

C. Reduces energy needed for survival
