Reduce the money supply.

Explanation:

When the Fed judges money supply to be higher than it should be, one of the ways it can reduce money supply is to embark on a Reverse Repurchase agreement.

This agreement means that the Fed is selling securities to financial institutions and will buy them back at a higher rate in the future. The money that the financial institutions pay the Fed will leave the market and go to the Fed thereby reducing the money supply in the Economy.

ans.

heterothermic organisms include those organisms that can switch between homeothermic (having body temperature higher than environment) and poikilothermic (having variation in internal body temperature) strategies.

some migratory birds show heterothermy as they decrease their metabolic rate during cold nights to keep their body temperature low. drop in metabolic rate allows increase in production efficiency of birds that reduces the internal body temperature to make it equal to external cold temperature during cold nights.

thus, the correct answer is 'birds allow their temperature drop in order to increase their production efficiency.'
