Write an adaptation of cactus, camel, and white bear.
Understand the Problem
The question is asking for an adaptation or comparison of how cacti, camels, and polar bears have evolved or modified their features to survive in their respective environments.
Answer
Cacti have waxy skin and no leaves. Camels have fat-storing humps and wide feet. Polar bears have white fur and black skin.
Cacti have thick, waxy skin and no leaves to reduce water loss. Camels have humps to store fat, wide feet for walking on sand, and a sandy coat for camouflage. Polar bears have white fur for camouflage, black skin to absorb heat, and small appendages to minimize heat loss.
Answer for screen readers
Cacti have thick, waxy skin and no leaves to reduce water loss. Camels have humps to store fat, wide feet for walking on sand, and a sandy coat for camouflage. Polar bears have white fur for camouflage, black skin to absorb heat, and small appendages to minimize heat loss.
More Information
Adaptations are physical or behavioral traits that improve survival in certain environments. Each organism's adaptations are specialized to its habitat's specific conditions.
Tips
A common mistake is to confuse camel humps with water storage; they actually store fat. Another error is assuming polar bears blend into ice; their camouflage is more about blending into snow.
