Answer:
c. Opossums play dead to evade predators.
Explanation:
Opossums are marsupials and endemic to the regions of America. They are known to display a very unique physiological behavior of playing dead whenever they are under stress due to encounter with a predator. Playing dead is an involuntary response which occurs automatically in the body of opossums which may last from 40 minutes to 4 hours.
Rest of the options are wrong because opossums are viviparous not oviparous. They are nocturnal i.e. active during night & inactive during daytime. They are bigger in size as compared to squirrels.
