<u>Adaptations </u><u>are unique characteristics that allow animals to survive in their environment.</u>
<u> There are </u><u>three </u><u>types of adaptations: </u><u>structural</u><u>, </u><u>physiological</u><u>, and </u><u>behavioral</u><u>. Structural adaptations are how the animal's body functions or looks on the ou</u>tside.
What are 3 ways animals can adapt to their environment?
Animals adapt to their environment in a variety of ways; an animal's color, behavior, defense or diet, for example, may serve adaptive functions.
Color and Pattern Adaptations.
Behavioral Adaptations.
Defensive Adaptations.
Dietary Adaptations.
What is an example of an animal adapting to its environment?
Adaptation can protect animals from predators or from harsh weather.
Many birds can hide in the tall grass and weeds and insects can change their colour to blend into the surroundings.
This makes it difficult for predators to seek them out for food.
In trees, most savanna adaptations are to drought--long tap roots to reach the deep water table, thick bark for resistance to annual fires (thus palms are prominent in many areas), deciduousness to avoid moisture loss during the dry season, and use of the trunk as a water-storage organ (as in baobab).
Larger macromolecules are formed from smaller macromolecules by making bonds with each other. carbohydrate is a macromolecule which is formed from glucose which is a micromolecule. Proteins is also a macromolecule composed from amino acids while lipid is also a macromolecule that are formed from fatty acids. These small micromolecules join together forming covalent bonds with each other.
