D. Reindeer have dense, woolly fur and hooves with high traction.
This adaptation would help an animal survive in the Arctic by providing insulation from the cold temperatures and minimizing heat loss, while the hooves with high traction would allow the animal to move effectively on the icy and snowy terrain.
