Question

question 1 - 9
mountain goats have thick fur and special hooves that allow them to survive at high elevations.
which physical factor is most directly linked to these adaptations?
high insolation at sea level
abundant rainfall at higher altitudes
proximity to coastlines
cold temperatures and steep topography

Explanation:

Mountain goats' thick fur helps against cold temperatures at high - elevations, and special hooves are for steep topography. High insolation at sea level is not relevant. Higher altitudes usually have less rainfall, not abundant. Proximity to coastlines has no direct link to these adaptations.

Answer:

Cold temperatures and steep topography
