The correct response is: **Hibernation reduces the energy required for survival.**
Hibernation allows animals to conserve energy by significantly slowing down their metabolism during periods when food is scarce, such as winter. This adaptation helps them survive when the environmental conditions are not favorable for foraging or hunting.
