Study Notes
Adaptations
- A behavioral adaptation is a learned behavior that helps an organism survive and reproduce in its environment.
- An example of a physiological adaptation is the camel's ability to store water in its bloodstream and tissues.
- The camel's humps store fat, not water, allowing it to survive for weeks without water; hence, they are called "ships of the desert".
- Eagles have a unique adaptation of exceptional eyesight, with a field of vision of almost 360 degrees.
- Physiological adaptations are internal changes that help an organism survive and thrive in its environment.
- A physical adaptation is a physical trait that helps an organism survive and reproduce in its environment; for example, the polar bear's white fur is a physical adaptation that helps it blend in with its snowy environment.
- A hummingbird's beak and tongue are uniquely adapted to feed on nectar, with its long, extendable tongue allowing it to reach deep into flowers.
- A behavioral adaptation example is a bird's migration pattern, which helps it escape harsh weather conditions and find food.
