Plant Adaptations Plants need water, sunlight, Nutrients and air for survival Many plants have adaptations to help them meet their needs in different environments.
 Petals are important for a plant because they are what attract bees, birds and insects to the plant that will help it  pollinate. Pollinate-when pollen.

Plant Adaptations

Types of Adaptations Structural adaptations Physical features of an organism. EXP: ???? Behavioral adaptations The way something acts naturally or by instinct in order to survive. Migration, moving in herds, hibernation.

Structural Adaptations Adaptations to get food Plants modify stems, roots and leaves to adapt to environment. Environment determines these modifications.

Behavioral Adaptations Adaptations to get food Plants lean or grow towards the sun. Roots grow down into soil. Vines climb up trees to catch sunlight. Fly traps develop trigger hairs.

Structural Adaptations Adaptations to get water and nutrients Roots soak up water and nutrients from soil.

Behavioral Adaptations Adaptations to get water and nutrients Desert flowers can stay dormant for months, only coming to life when it rains.

Structural Adaptations Adaptations for reproduction Brightly colored flowers with nectar attract pollinators such as birds, bees and insects.

Structural Adaptations Adaptations for reproduction Sweet fruit attracts animals that spread seeds far away. Some seeds are shaped to catch the wind.

Behavioral Adaptations Adaptations for reproduction Plants drop seeds to grow new offspring.

Structural Adaptations Adaptations for defense Spines and thorns protect plants from predators

Structural Adaptations Adaptations for defense Poison Ivy and Poison oak have toxins that give predators a painful itchy rash.

Plant Adaptations for different Biomes

Desert Adaptations Small leaves or spines on desert plants conserve water. Thick waxy skin holds in water. Roots near the soils surface soak up rain water quickly before it evaporates.

Grassland Adaptations Deep roots help plants survive prairie fires. Narrow leaves lose less water than broad leaves. Flexible stems bend in the wind.

Tundra Adaptations Small plants grow close to the ground for warmth. Dark colored flowers absorb heat from the sun. Fuzzy stems provide protection from wind.

Rainforest Adaptations Smooth, slippery bark keeps vines from killing trees. Slide shaped leaves lets rain run off so fungus doesn’t grow on plants.

Temperate Forest Adaptations Thick bark protects trees and dropping leaves in winter conserves water and nutrients during cold winters.

Water Adaptations Flexible stems move with water currents. Floating seeds spread offspring.

Now it’s your turn! Where will your plant grow? (Biome) What adaptations will your plant have? Grading Rubric Adaptation for defense/ protection __________ (10 pts) Adaptation for acquiring or producing food __________ (10 pts) Adaptations for reproducing (Attracting pollinators and spreading seeds) __________ (10 pts) Adaptations for acquiring water and nutrients __________ (10 pts) Model is creative __________ (10 pts) Total points = 100
