1. Morphological Adaptations in Animals By; Diksha Pasi (B.Sc 1 st year) Roll No.: 8585

2.  Adaptations help organisms survive in their ecological niche or habitat; adaptations can be anatomical, behavioural or physiological.  Anatomical adaptations are physical features such as an animals shape.  Behavioural adaptations can be inherited or learnt and include tool use, language and swarming behaviour.  Behavioural adaptations can be inherited or learnt and include tool use, language and swarming behaviour.  Physiological adaptations include the ability to make venom; but also more general functions such as temperature regulation.

4.  Animal intelligence covers behaviour that's considered above the norm for an animal. Some species may be unusually adept at learning new skills or using tools. Others have highly developed social and even emotional skills and may even have developed a distinct culture, in a similar way to human beings. 1. Culture. 2. Language. 3. Learning. 4. Tool use.

5.  Behavioural pattern describes an animal's dominant way of life. Arboreal animals, for example, live in trees and nocturnal animals are active at night. 1. Air plant. 2. Burrower.

9.  Communication and senses are how an organism perceives the world - for instance through scent or sight - and how it sends messages or warnings to others. 1. Acoustic communication. 2. Bioluminescence. 3. Chemical communication.
