Explanation:

All animals need at least food, oxygen, shelter, space to survive. These needs, which are common to all animals, are fundamental to their survival and successful reproduction. However, from the options given in the question, not all animals need to capture prey to survive, as not all animals are carnivores. Some are herbivores that feed on plants, and do not prey on other animals. Also, not all animals need to avoid predators. For example, lions are predators and carnivores, they do not need to avoid predators. The correct options are option A and option D.

A prehensile tail is a tail that is adapted for grasping or holding, and it is common among arboreal animals, i.e. animals that dwell on trees. Therefore, a prehensile tail would help a tree-dwelling chameleon to grasp branches. The correct option is "A. Its tail would help it grasp branches."
