Adaptations An Adaptation is how an animal lives. It adapts to its surroundings by blending in with objects like its color. For example the Arctic Wolf blends in with the snow cause the wolf is White

Species Adaptations and Individual Adaptations A species adaptation is how the whole species adapts to their surroundings for example the whole species of Arctic Wolves blend in with the snow. An individual adaptation is when only one animal in the species adapts differently. For example if all the arctic wolves blend in with snow while one of them hide in bushes

Camouflage, hibernation, migration, and mimicry. Camouflage is when animals blend in with their surroundings. For example the arctic hare blends in with the snow. Hibernation is when an animal goes underground to sleep for the winter. For example the grizzly bear goes underground to sleep for the winter. Migration is when animals move to one place to another. For example geese fly south for the winter. Mimicry is when an animal sounds like another animal. For example a type of caterpillar makes its head to look like a snake head.

Genetics and heredity Genetics is something that you inherit from someone your related to for example. If you have brown eyes and your dad has brown eyes you get brown eyes because your dad has the stronger gene. Heredity is a characteristic that you get from your parents. For example if you get anger issues and if your parents have anger issues you get that characteristic from your parents.
