Core Books/NCERT
The correct answer is (b) Only two. Lion-tailed Macaques are diurnal animals, meaning they are most active during the day. Malabar Civets are nocturnal animals, meaning they are most active at night. Sambar Deer are nocturnal or crepuscular animals, meaning they are most active at dawn and dusk. Therefore, only two of the three animals listed are generally nocturnal or most active after sunset.
