The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Migration**: Migration is a behavioral adaptation where organisms move from one habitat to another to escape unfavorable environmental conditions. This movement is usually temporary and is aimed at finding a more hospitable environment. 2. **Identifying Unfavorable Conditions**: Organisms migrate primarily due to harsh environmental conditions. These can include: - Extreme temperatures (either too hot or too cold) - Unstable climatic conditions - Reduced food availability - Uneven precipitation patterns 3. **Examples of Migration**: Various animal groups exhibit migratory behavior. For instance: - The Siberian crane migrates to Bharatpur bird sanctuary to escape extremely low temperatures in its original habitat. - Other animals, such as certain fish and insects, also migrate in response to similar unfavorable conditions. 4. **Analyzing the Options**: The question asks which unfavorable conditions lead to migration. The options likely include: - A) Temperature - B) Food availability - C) Precipitation - D) All of the above 5. **Conclusion**: Since all the mentioned conditions (temperature, food availability, and precipitation) can lead to migration, the correct answer is option D: all of the above. ---
