Help pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeereeee

The answer is D. Kidneys absorb more water,volume of water lost from the skin increases and the hairs on the skin lie flat

Definition of Mesosaurus

A genus of small aquatic presumably fish eating permian reptiles of south American and southern Africa.

Mesosaurus fossils got separated through continental drift. Continental drift is the assumption that the continents of the Earth have moved relative to each other over geological time, thereby appearing to have "drifted" across the ocean bed.



Evidence to support my claim

It is because its remains were found in southern Africa ,and eastern south America , two widely separated regions. As Mesosaurus was a coastal animal, and therefore less likely to have crossed the Atlantic Ocean, this distribution indicated that the two continents used to be joined together. Now if the continents were in still their present positions, there is no possibility that the Mesosaurus would have the capability to swim across such a large body of ocean as the Atlantic because it was a coastal animal.
