Adaptation Activity -1 by Denise White https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4 1st Period en-us 2016-12-30 19:41:17 UTC 2024-01-26 02:15:46 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Rafaelo.png Follow the instructions below dwhite281 https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/144906970 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.]]> 2016-12-30 20:05:31 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/144906988 Internal Adaptations dwhite281 https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/144906997 Adaptations that have to do with internal organs and basic functions.  
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 20:06:51 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/144907002 Example https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/145494834 Our organism is a Camel. A structural adaptation is the camel's hump. The hump allows the camel to store water and go up to a week without water and up to several months without food. An internal adaptation is the camels body temperature fluctuates/changes . This allows the camel to conserve water by not sweating as the temperature rises throughout the day (because they live in the desert). ]]> 2017-01-05 14:58:19 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/145494834 Beavers carly_musgrove https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/221737411 Our organism is a Beaver. A structural adaption is the tail.The tail helps the Beaver swim faster than it would without the tail . It helps them with support and in thier tail it stores fat for long cold winters. Beavers are able to carry up to 500lbs in thier mouth.]]> 2018-01-16 15:17:53 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/221737411 polar bear https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/221739643 Polar bears have thick fur to keep them warm. They eat seals once every fore or five days.The fat of the seal turns into good fat fore the polar bear witch means that polar bears don't get a hart disease this is an internal adaptation.]]> 2018-01-16 15:22:18 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/221739643 Intelligent Octopus https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/221739801 By Emma, and Emily

We are talking about the Intelligent Octopus. A structural adaptation of the octopus is its flexible limbs and body.  The Octopi can squeeze through tight spaces, and quickly escape a predator. An internal adaptation of the octopus is its intelligence. It's smarts help the octopus get out of any attack, or have a good hunt.]]> 2018-01-16 15:22:40 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/221739801 cobra nicholas_landon https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/221741121 when they feel threatened they bluff up. they shoot a nero toxin that they shoot at the eyes. it hurts or blinds the preditor]]> 2018-01-16 15:25:05 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/221741121 Horned Lizard ava_konsol https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/221743721 Tongue to eat ants, camoflauge and thick skin with spikes to protect itself.

The quarts helps the spider to know when to strike at its pray. If the spider does not want a rock it throws it elsewhere. ]]> 2018-01-17 03:31:28 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/psd6a6s8a9a4/wish/221941269
