Damon - All Rights Reserved $200 Animal Adaptations We have studied many adaptations to animals that help them survive in different habitats. B. Explain in detail how each of the adaptations you identified help your chosen animal to survive. © Mark E. Damon - All Rights Reserved $200 B. Salmon - The swim bladder helps the fish to stay upright and horizontal in the water. Its streamlined body is good for cruising easily through water. They are fast swimmers which allow them to swim through fast waters. They migrate up rivers and streams to lay their eggs. Their bodies are adapted to live in both freshwater and saltwater. Salmon mature in the saltwater ocean. They lay their eggs in the freshwater streams and rivers. Robin – These birds migrate in the winter to where their food sources is more plentiful. They use different calls to communicate specific information like the approach of predators. Their special shaped beaks allow them to eat foods like beetle grubs, caterpillars, worms, fruits, and berries. They have a good sense of hearing to help them hear and catch prey while avoiding predators. They have better eyesight than people and other animals to help locate food and predators quickly. Their wings allow them to fly away from predators and to catch prey. A robin’s hollow bones and feathers allow it to be lightweight enough to fly. © Mark E. Damon - All Rights Reserved $200 B. Tiger – Its stripes allow it to blend in with its surroundings because they create similar patterns to sunlight beaming through trees and jungle grasses. This makes it difficult for both predators and prey to spot tigers in the wild. Its flexible spine and long hind limbs allow them to jump. Its strength and muscular structure give is the ability to swim, run, and capture prey. It has soft pads on its feet to allow it to walk on its toes and sneak up on unsuspecting prey. Its razor-sharp claws are used to fight other tigers as well as maim and kill prey. Their night vision gives it the ability to see long distances both day and night. Sensitive hearing and a keen sense of smell help a tiger to mark its territory and locate both prey and other predators. A tiger hunts alone , which provides the benefit of stealth. Polar Bear – Its thick fur keeps it warm in frigid air and water. Its fur is white for camouflage in ice and snow. Its black skin absorbs heat from the sun’s rays to help keep it warm. Its pads provide traction on ice. The big paws spread out its body weight on the ice and are broad for use in swimming. Its claws are curved to dig through ice. Its jagged teeth are perfect for tearing and eating meat. Its fat layers keep it warm like insulation. © Mark E. Damon - All Rights Reserved $200 B. Zebra – Its white fur helps to rebound/reflect the sun’s light. Its big ears release heat from its body. Its thin fur helps to keep it cool. Its stripes are like camouflage. They help it to blend in with its background environment. It has long legs to help it run fast from predators. Zebras live together in herds to protect them from predators. Scores © Mark E.
