Explanation / Answer

1. Feeding from a central supply of food or water.

Reason : Central place foraging maximizes the energy returns of any species, it recommends the concept of nest or central feeding where they can store the foods and return to the nest after the hunt

2. Desert

Reason: Plasticity is the behaviour which is produce when the environment has different variations and animals produce different genotype to adapat to the conditions. out of the options desert is the only environment which has wide range of temperature and harsh conditions.
