Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

The integument in mammals acts as the storage of reverse food.

Fats are usually stored in the liver and muscles, but a considerable amount of fats are stored in the form of subdermal fat in the skin.

In whales, such a fatty layer called blubber is several inches thick.

Bubble is thin film of liquid forming a hollow globule around air, of gas, or solid, or liquid.
