Lily Pads:
Absorb light, and nutrients, filter out waste, and photosynthesis, and reproduction.
Their vines contain air pockets that rise to the surface of the water to benefit from the maximum amount of sunlight. Large white flowers attract pollinators ensuring reproduction. Large surface area to attract ample sunlight.
Hydrophobic surface: waxy coating, to prevent the leaves from becoming waterlogged. Aiding gas exchange and preventing the growth of algae.
Their roots help them stabilize in the water and absorb nutrients from the sediment through long rhizomes.

Honeybees are important pollinators which contribute to the reproduction of plant species. They use a communication system which includes dances to indicate the direction of nectar and pollen.

Chameleons are able to camouflage themselves according to their environment by adjusting their pigments.

Polar bears are able to survive the arctic cold with the natural insulation they have from their fat and fur

- Willow trees use leaves as solar panels, which captures solar energy with nontoxic and biodegradable materials

-Willow trunks move water against gravity without motors

-Spiders weave thin strings which is almost invisible to insects during flight, allowing them to catch prey efficiently

-Polar bears are able to survive the cold with insulation from thick coats of fur

- Leaves have dents which act as funnels to let water run down them

Plant guard cells - they have a stomatal pore and are needed for carbon dioxide and water to either pass into the plant, or not be able to enter. However this is controlled by the plant regulating the external conditions to see if is the right time for carbon dioxide to be taken up, for instance during the night as no ATP is produced water exits the guard cells.

Jesus lizard - uses the surface tension of the water and its thin body to actually walk on water, as a way to escape predators.

Polar Bear: Polar bears employ specialized strategies to survive in the Arctic, including efficient hunting skills, dependence on sea ice, energy conservation, migration, maternal care, and adaptation to changing conditions. These functions and strategies ensure their survival in their unique environment.

Spiders: They weave thin strong to create a web which allows them to capture there prey with ease and more effectively

Owl: Owls have exceptional adaptations and strategies to excel as nocturnal hunters. With keen vision, silent flight, powerful talons, and sharp beaks, they efficiently capture prey. Camouflage aids in concealment, while specialized hearing allows for precise locating.

Glue show high strength - mussels, the function is move or stay put more specifically permanently in liquids

Wetsuit with hair -  sea otters, they have dense fur which helps them to trap air and deflect the water particles while swimming which keeps them warm.

Termite mound - Its walls are filled with tiny holes that allow outside air to enter and fill the entire structure

Stinging cells to deter herbivores from eating it. They have fine, hollow hairs on their leaves and stems that contain chemicals which are irritating. The hairs break off and inject the chemical when in touch with the skin.

* Polar bears top predators in the artic. They can adapt to cold conditions as they have a layer of blubber  and thick fur for insulation

*Cheetah help balance Savanna ecosystem
With long legs, a flexible spine, and a light body, cheetahs are designed for speed. They use their incredible acceleration and top speed to pursue and capture fast-moving prey.

Bats use echolocation to navigate and locate prey in the dark. They emit high-frequency sounds and listen for the echoes to determine the location, distance, and movement of objects around them.

Camels have developed humps in their back in order to store fat and release heat in order to conserve energy and survive in their desert habitat

Arctic animals have fur to insulate from the cold

Trees canopies are designed to allow rain water to run off them and flow down to the ground

# data[].attributes.body
Gecko's have hair on their feet which allows them to maximize contact with any surface they come in contact which lets them climb walls and upside down

Trees- create shade and can prevent skin from getting burned in the sun and allow human life to be protected against the suns rays and harmful UV radiation. The leaves are scattered which is more efficient which means there is more surface area than if there were for example just one big leaf.

Polar Bear | Surviving in extremely cold temperatures | It’s fur → insulates the bear and reduce heat loss | Apply it to building and clothing materials.

Oak Tree | Tunk moves water against gravity without motorized pumps
Canopy humidifies air | → The water climbs by capillary action and surface tension through micro pores created by the xylem tissues
→ Through the process of transpiration and dense foliage of the trees.  | Transport of waterIncrease of inland precipitation

Humidifying air → better air quality (helps prevent airborne illnesses)

Ducks: play a crucial role in seed dispersal as they ingest seeds from one location and then excrete them in another
Swans: facilitate the flow of nutrients and oxygen
Crows: help control pest insects and clean up dead animals and garbage that has been scattered by other animals
Bees: make honey, pollinate so that plants can fertilise

Trees - their roots help stabilise them and provide support to prevent them from falling over

Ducks - have webbing and are able to swim well. Geese maybe have long necks for a reason?

Trees - are able to provide both shelter, and release oxygen to us.

Ants - communicate to create a house for their queen and follow a path.

Dandelion - Have a unique process of distributing seeds; they utilize wind to disperse them, taking advatage of nature around them and interacting with it.

Seed pod - after being pollenated and run its life's course, a flower has shedded its seeds and petals in order to reproduce. The colors of the flower, when in bloom, attract bees in order to get them to pollenate them. The design of this flower holds its seeds around its stalk, maximising the amount of seeds per area.

The circular nature of the leaves of these butterburs allows rainwater ot funnel down to the roots. The wider the leaves, the more water that can be captured because they occupy a wider area, furthermore the wide leaves allow the plant to absorb as much sunlight as possible, due to this, the plants receive alot of sunlight, which allows them to grow a lot and also reproduce a lot.

Furthermore, in the green space we found spider webs. the resistant material which they are made of allows insects to stick to the spider web without flying through it and breaking it.

Roots of red mangrove forests protect coastal shorelines by absorbing energy from waves. Powerful storm surges and other types of large waves carry enormous amounts of energy. When they wash up on a shoreline, they can cause rapid erosion, major damage to buildings, and loss of human life. Mangrove forests can protect shorelines from damage by powerful waves. The forests’ layered architecture helps to slow down and scatter wave energy so that it loses power before it reaches the shore.

Penguin:
We used the penguins' counter current heat exchange to create an efficient and sustainable cooling system for our apartment building.
Tree:
We mimicked the shape of a  shape to create shade for the apartments and to minimise wind exposure and make the wind circulate around the building.
Termite:
We used the termite's nest ventilation system to create a sustainable ventilation system. The termites create a nest that allows wind to flow underneath the structure and then the heat rises up through the middle of the structure ultimately releasing the undesired heat.
