1-(d) Birds have hollow bones which makes their bodies light. The different kind of feathers and streamlined body helps the bird to fly long distances. 2-(f) Habitat is the natural home of an animal. It provides food, water and shelter which an animal needs to survive. For example, fishes live in the aquatic habitat. 3-(e) Blubber is a thick layer of fat under the skin.

They have developed fake eyes to scare off birds. Column-A Column-B 1. Birds d. Hollow bones 2. Habitat f. The natural home of animal 3. Blubber e. A thick layer of fat under the skin 4.
