    Study Notes

    Adaptations for Survival

    • Thick layers of fat and fur, or blubber, help to insulate and keep warm in the Arctic environment
    • White coloration for camouflage in snowy habitats
    • Specialized physical features, such as compact bodies, short ears, and tails, reduce heat loss

    Characteristics of Seeds

    • Seeds are embryonic plants surrounded by a protective coat
    • They are designed for dispersal and germination in a new location
    • Seeds are produced by flowering plants, such as angiosperms and gymnosperms
    • Seeds are NOT a type of fruit

    Function of Fruits

    • The primary function of a fruit is to protect and disperse seeds
    • Fruits develop from the ovary of a flower and contain seeds

    Nocturnal Organisms

    • Nocturnal organisms are active at night and rest or sleep during the day
    • Characteristics of nocturnal organisms include enhanced senses, such as hearing and smell, and adaptations for low-light conditions

    Pollen Formation

    • In angiosperms, pollen formation occurs in the anthers of flowers
