    • 40 cm

    • 60 cm

    Correct Answer
    A. 60 cm
    Explanation

Their hind legs are specially adapted for jumping, with long and strong muscles that store and release energy quickly. This enables them to propel themselves off the ground and cover impressive distances in a single jump. The ability to jump such a distance is advantageous for fleas as it helps them move quickly and efficiently, especially when trying to reach a host for feeding or to escape from potential predators.
