Respuesta :

I think the correct answer is B. The ability to fight off predators. Pangolin's mother nurture their young ones in nesting burrows. A mother will protectively roll around her baby when sleeping or if threatened. Babies nurse three to four months but can eat termite and ants at one month.

 The correct answer is C. The ability to survive until it reproduces.

In order for any individual organism, including a pangolin, to reproduce, it must survive long enough. For pangolins, this means surviving at least two years. Females, in addition, must survive through gestation so that they can give birth. It is not necessary that they bear multiple young or fight off predators, so long as they can avoid or survive predators. Only female pangolins need to be able to lactate—or produce milk—if they want their offspring to survive to adulthood.
