Mathematics · Passage and Conclusion

Read the passage carefully and judge the truth value of the given statement. Passage: The Sahara's environment requires that the wildlife adapt to hyper-arid conditions, fierce winds, intense heat and wide temperature swings. In the Sahara, most mammals are relatively small, which helps to minimize water loss. They often meet their water needs from their diets. They take refuge in burrows during the day, hunting and foraging primarily at night, when temperatures are lower. They have developed anatomical adaptations such as the fennec fox's large ears, which help dissipate heat, and its hairy soles, which protect its feet. Altogether, the Sahara hosts 70 species of mammals, 90 species of resident birds, 100 species of reptiles, and numerous species of arthropods. The wildlife is concentrated primarily along the less severe northern and southern margins and near desert water sources. Statement: There are around 90 species of reptiles found in the Sahara.
