Adaptations

An adaptation is a variation of structure, or behavior that aids the organism’s survival in its particular environment.

Snake Teeth: Which snake is poisonous? How might the type of teeth help you decide?

Whale Teeth: Which whale is a vegetarian? How might the type of teeth help you decide?

The location and size of an animals eyes aid in its survival The location and size of an animals eyes aid in its survival. How does the location of the eyes in a horse aid in survival?

Why are an alligator’s eyes on top of its head?

You have seen two examples of adaptations in animals that aid in its survival. What are some other adaptations that aid in animal survival? What are some adaptations in plants that aid in survival?
