Good hearing to detect predators

large feet to help walk on snow
C
long deep roots to absorb water from soil
D
sharp claws and teeth for killing prey
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Large back feet help them to run away from predators and to communicate-thumping their back feet warns other rabbits of danger. Their long claws are used for digging burrows. Rabbits live in large groups in underground burrow systems known as warrens.

Detailed explanation-2: -Rabbits are resilient and adaptable animals. The main adaptations that explain their adaptive success are those regarding their nutrition (great variety of choice and high use), immune system (powerful and developed), and others related to genetics and behaviour.

Detailed explanation-3: -However, rabbits have extremely long and strong hind limbs (that is to say, rear legs). This adaptation allows them to hop very quickly and very far. Rabbits can run quickly, as well. In fact, the average rabbit can run between 25 and 45 miles per hour.
