1. Adaptation

2. ADAPT OR DIE! As the world is changing species must use many strategies to stay healthy and preserve their ability to leave healthy offspring Who are best adapted?, It isn´t always the strongest, nor the most beautiful. Only those that are best able to leave healthy offspring.

3. ADAPTATION Biological definition: Any alteration in the structure or function of an organism or any of its parts that results from natural selection and by which the organism becomes better suited to survive and multiply in its environment.

4. Different kinds of adaptation Physical Changes in the body Physiological Cytochrome p450 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9569642 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9569642 Behaviour MigrationIn time or place Changing of resources to survive

5. Physical adaptations are evident in the body

6. Behavioral adaptations are not so evident in the body Terrestrial (land) Iguana Iguanas from galapagos Island Iguanas video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tO_ 9zm9tsCs

7. Extreme ecosystems need extreme adaptations Extreme dryness Adaptations to harvest water from air in desert conditions The fog basking beetle Onymacris unguicularis Extreme coolness Polar bear adaptations to the cold.

9. Is it true? Being together is useful to keep penguins warm? Complete a design practical to determine how the behavioural adaptations seen in Emperor penguins allow them to survive in their environment. In this case the penguin will be represented by a boiling tube of warm water and the environment will be represented by an ice bath. Remember that your design MUST reflect the situation observed. You cannot simply wrap the boiling tube in tin foil or Styrofoam.
