In a 1999 study, researchers incubated snapping turtle eggs at four different temperatures and, immediately upon hatching, collected blood samples to measure plasma levels of thyroxine (T4). Based on the results of this study (shown below), do snapping turtles exhibit metabolic cold adaptation? [NOTE: The absence of a bar for a particular temperature - sex combination indicates that the T4 level was not measured.]Group of answer choices No. Yes, especially males. Yes, especially females.
