ADAPTATION Isma M. Shaff

Definition An adaptation is a trait that makes an animal suited to its environment.

It can be: Structural adaptations Behavioral adaptations

Structural adaptations Structural adaptations are physical traits of an organism. Examples: Shape Body covering Types of beaks and claws etc.

Shape Streamline body

Girrafe

Its spine is like a spring

Body Covering

Types of beaks fringed flat and wide at the base sharp, "hooked" beaks A cone shaped bill Thin, slender beaks A tubular bills strong beaks which taper to the tip, A sharp tooth-like structures on the edge

Types of Claws in Birds Types of Claws in Birds Cursorial or running feet. e.g., Bustards, Cassowary, Ostrich. Perching feet. e.g., sparrows, crows, bulbuls. Scratching feet. e.g., fowls, quails, pheasants. Raptorial feet. e.g., eagles, kites, vultures, owls, etc. Wading feet. e.g., Herons, Jacana. Swimming feet. e.g., ducks, pelican, cormorant. Climbing feet. e.g., parrots and woodpeckers. Clinging feet. e.g., swifts, and humming-birds.

Types of Claws

Behavioral adaptations Behavioral adaptations are composed of inherited behavior chains and the ability to learn. Examples: Searching for food Mimicry/camouflage Moving in large groups .

Examples Penguins Structural Adaptations: Behavioral adaptations: They are white on the front and black on the back. Feathers : extremely densely packed, with no gaps between them. They don’t have the extra air spaces in their bones that normal bird have. Behavioral adaptations: Penguins live in large communities They make their nests side by side
