The correct answer is:
B

Desert lizards shows behavioural response to keep their body temperature constant. They bask in the sun and absorb heat when their body temperature drops below the comfort zone, but move into shade when the ambient temperature starts increasing. Some species are capable of burrowing into the soil to hide & escape from heat.
