D Correct answer

Rabbits use their large, thin ears primarily as radiators to regulate body temperature. The ears contain extensive networks of blood vessels close to the surface that release heat to the environment, helping the rabbit cool down especially in hot weather. This is an adaptation for thermoregulation.
