    Study Notes

    Adaptation in Living Things

    • Living things adapt to their environment to survive by developing behaviors or physical characteristics that increase their survival chances.

    Adaptations in Forest Biome

    • Trees adapt by growing taller to reach sunlight, giving them a survival advantage.
    • Shorter plants adapt by learning to live in shade with less sunlight.

    Animal Adaptations in the Forest

    • Monkeys have long tails, used like an extra hand, to swing through trees quickly while holding babies or gathering food.
    • Giraffes have long necks, an adaptation to reach leaves at the tops of tall trees.

    Defense Adaptations

    • Some animals' adaptations prevent predators from eating them, such as a skunk's horrible smell.
    • Some plants protect themselves with thorns, like roses and acacia trees, to prevent animals from eating their leaves.
