Mar 5, 2019 · The adaptation of animals and plants to their environment is a series of varied biological processes with varying purposes, but the general purpose is the continued survival of the species. This is key to the difference between an animal's adaptation and ability.

Learn about the different types of animal adaptations (physical, behavioral and physiological) and how they help animals survive in various habitats. Explore examples of animal adaptations in deserts, grasslands, rainforests and polar regions.
Oct 19, 2023 · Learn how organisms adjust to their environment and evolve over time through natural selection. Explore examples of biological and behavioral adaptation in different species and habitats.
An adaptation is a characteristic that helps an animal survive in its habitat. All animals must be able to obtain food and water, protect themselves from harm, withstand the climate, and reproduce young so the species doesn't become extinct.
An animal adaptation is a physical or behavioral trait that helps an animal to survive in its natural environment. Animals can either be born with adaptations or they are learned during their lifetime.
