1.Monkeys have a prehensile tail that allows them to grab and hold onto tree branches…structural

Explanation

A structural adaptation is a physical feature of an organism as a result of the evolutionary process that occurs due to mutation of genes over time. For example, long furs that help to keep the temperature of an organism warm is a structural adaptation

Behavioral adaptations are the things organisms involve themselves with to ensure survival as a result of evolution. For example, the migration of birds to other places in search of food is a behavioral adaptation.
