 ANimal Adaptations
By: Kylie Garcia
"For animals, adaptation is the idea that animals have developed features that help them to survive and thrive where they live."
Animal Adaptation
3 Types of Adaptations
Behavioral
Physiological
Structural
"An organism's environment shapes its appearance through structural adaptations."
 "Based on body chemistry and metabolism, physiological adaptations usually don't show from the outside. They consist of things like more efficient kidneys for desert animals like kangaroo rats, compounds that prevent blood coagulation in mosquito saliva."
"Adaptations that affect how an organism acts are called behavioral adaptations."
