Adaptation Activity -4 by Denise White https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7 4th Period en-us 2016-12-30 19:46:38 UTC 2023-04-11 03:26:57 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Rafaelo.png Follow the instructions below. dwhite281 https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/144906699 1.  With your partner, research and find one organism (not from Videos) and give an example of at least 2 of the 3 types of adaptations.  

2.  Make a note on this page with your name in the title line and your adaptations identified.  Explain how this adaptation benefits your organism.

3. Include an image to go with your example. 

4. Extra credit for a video to go with your example. 

5. You may not have the same other class members. 

6. View the unusual adaptations video links :).

to do with actions or activities of an organism.

Differences in internal adaptations are things that separate organisms in higher levels of classification. For example mammals and reptiles have significantly different internal adaptations (cold blooded vs warm blooded, 
digestive tracts, heart sizes and rates etc)

For example beak shape, fur color and tooth sharpness are all examples of structural adaptations.]]> 2016-12-30 19:57:23 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/144906853 https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/145555650 2017-01-05 17:55:18 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/145555650 Examples https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/145556284 Sharks have many adaptations that allow them to thrive in the ocean, such as denticles (structural) and a liver producing squalene (internal). Denticles are a protective layer around a sharks body and like their teeth, it can be replaced throughout the shark's life. Squalene is a fatty oil that is produced by a shark's liver. The reason why its crucial for a shark's survival is because squalene helps the shark to stay afloat.

The quills in a porcupines back is a structural adaptation on its body because whenever they feel threatened or are attacked the quills will protect them and potentially hurt the predator

They have long incisors that never stop growing so they can eat as much bark and wood as possible  (structural adaptations + porcupines eat wood for food)

They also have a strong digestive system to help them process and digest the bark they call food (internal  adaptation)

Also, they have sharp teeth and claws to hunt and catch and eat their prey. Their claws are also retractable to help the bobcat climb easily. A behavioral adaptation that bobcats have is that they can sneak up on its prey without making a sound.

Pigs have rugged skeleton which supports their great weight. This is a structural adaptation example. A behavioral adaptation is a pigs nose. The nose helps them hunt underground truffles, which are high valued fungi, which are normally found in European and North American forests. They use pigs because of their amazing sense of smell!]]> 2018-01-16 18:03:28 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/221817436 Jaden and Kate kate_mohon https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/221817567 Structural: Flamingo's legs are useful in their environment. The legs and handy for wading in deep water and the beautiful bird stands on one leg so that it can keep warm. This structural adaption is useful in a flamingos survival.
Internal: Flamingos live in salt water environments. Because of this, sometimes a flamingo will consume excess salt.To get rid of excess salt they use their salt glands. These glands release excess salt through the nose.]]> 2018-01-16 18:03:47 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/221817567 phoenix and matthew https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/221817596 African lion

The lion has a tan coat that helps blend into its natural habitat(Savannah)
and it also helps it sneak up on prey.Also,the lions claws are retractable so that it can help the lion grab and hold prey.Not only that,the lion has loose belly skin that makes it more resilient to being kicked by its prey.

Sharks Large size help it Attack and eat larger pray. The great white sharks stomach is white and it camouflages with the sky. It is shaped like a torpedo to go fast underwater(35 MPH) to catch its prey.

Alpine goats hooves are like rubber, so they can jump from rock to rock .This adaptation is an external structural adaptation.The alpine goat has 8 teeth so it can easily grab big patches of grass,this is an internal structural.Their horns help them defend themselves from predators ,this is an external structural adaptation.Their fur looks like snow so they can blend in to hide from predators,this mimircy external.They live in big groups in the winter to stay warm,this is a behavior.They shed hair off in the summer to stay cool,this is a external behavior.

Its streamline body and a broad,flat tail are covered with dense waterproof fur, which provides excellent thermal insulation.
A behavioral adaptation of the Platypus is that it sweeps its bill underwater from side to side 2-3 times a second, sifting its way through the river bed and picking up the electrical impulses. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfaE8Pt5Gls]]> 2018-01-16 18:04:11 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/221817751 Reagan Allsup ,Avery Thompson(sloths) https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/221818080 one of there many adaptions is there fur grows in a different way than all of the other animals,this provides them protection when hanging upside down from trees,it also works as camouflage to hide them from possible predators.There claws are also long and sharp to help them grip on to the trees that they climb]]> 2018-01-16 18:04:59 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/221818080 Colton And Parker parker_stanic https://padlet.com/dwhite281/fq48a9bfg3j7/wish/221818234 Ducks
 Have webbed Feet Common to Gesse  They are Like Paddles which help them navigate through the water in order to swim. Ducks Have a behaveioral Adaptaton when they migrate South for the winter to survive  The Cold. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekqIE5ikBZ8
