For example beak shape, fur color and tooth sharpness are all examples of structural adaptations.]]> 2016-12-30 20:14:22 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/144907108 Internal Adaptations dwhite281 https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/144907109 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)

to do with actions or activities of an organism.

Beluga Whales have a five inch layer of blubber that helps them stay warm in ice cold waters.This would be a external structural adaptations. They also use high pitched sounds to help them navigate through the water because they don't have the best sight and no sense of smell. This is an external adaption and is a behavioral adaption. Finally Beluga Whales have a slowed heart rate that helps them stay under water for more than 15 minutes. This would be an example of a internal adaption. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTeT1Sg_A2I]]> 2017-01-05 20:51:50 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/145602279 Ben and Jerry dwhite281 https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221887916 Eagle Write about your organism's adaptations. ]]> 2018-01-16 20:59:11 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221887916 Kayden and Madison https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221889507 Bottle Nose Dolphin- Two adaptations that Bottle Nose Dolphins need to survive is  maximum breath holding which is an internal adaptation, and the power of there tail to help them dive which is a structural adaptation.Holding its breathe helps it survive because they can stay under water long enough to find prey and live under water. Having a powerful tail is helpful to them surviving because it helps them swim fast away from predators and helps them dive for prey.]]> 2018-01-16 21:05:08 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221889507 Nicholas and Luke https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221889733 Naked  Mole Rats-
Naked Mole Rats rely on sharp hearing and an strong sense of smell. They can detect vibrations in the ground and in the air. When the females become queen, they grow longer by increasing the distance between the vertebrae in her spine. Though they're mammals, naked mole rats can't maintain their body temperature, so they huddle in large masses to slow heat loss. Naked mole rats eat feces, letting them maximize nutritional gain from food.

Male penguins incubate their egg by keeping it under their body's.
Penguins have webbed feet and their wings are shaped like flippers to help them swim at the speed of 15 miles per hour. Penguins have heavy bones helping them stay underwater so they can float back up when they please.

Lions have a tail that helps them to maintain balance and they also have whiskers to help with their sensory and that helps them to find food during the night if they are not able to see. They also have a thick coat of fur for warmth for when it gets extremely cold during the winter]]> 2018-01-16 21:06:56 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221889894 Devon and Erin erin_koons https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221889996 Pugs- One behavioral adaptation of a pug is their  lazy attitude. When pugs exercise they pant a lot which really restricts their breathing and causes them to put lots of pressure on their trachea. This could cause their trachea to collapse. So their lazy behavior keeps their breathing regulated. 
A structural  adaptation of a pug is their shedding coat. A pugs coat sheds based on the temperature the pug is in. If a pug is cold it will shed much less than normal but if a pug is hot it will shed a lot leaving hair everywhere. 
A internal adaptation of a pug is excess fat. Pugs tend to get cold because of how much they shed when it's warm. They need the excess fat to keep them warm most importantly when they are wet. ]]> 2018-01-16 21:07:22 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221889996 Ashlyn https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221890215 Brown Bear- 
Brown Bears are incredibly strong, and are able to break the necks of prey. They have a thick layer of fur and fat to insulate them against extreme weather. They also have an excellent sense of smell. ]]> 2018-01-16 21:08:26 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221890215 Ryder I_Am_Boot https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221890293 Chambered Nautilus
The nautilus has a multi-chambered shell that allows it to never have to leave it's shell, but still allowing it to grow. Because of this, it is not as vulnerable to an attack by a predator.
In addition to this, the nautilus, a member of the cephalopod family, has a hard beak to crush food for easier digestion.
Clearly, these adaptations have gotten it far, because the nautilus has been around over 400 million years, without much of a change.]]> 2018-01-16 21:08:43 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221890293 Joey and Zander alexander_beckman https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221890407 Black Panther-
These animals have a dark black coat which helps them camouflage during night and catch their prey without being seen. Another adaptation these animals have is extremely sharp claws which help them climb trees where they can hunt, also, these animals are like cats, they have pads on their paws so they won't get hurt when climbing on sharp objects.

The panda has a six thumb, this thumb helps the panda maneuver its bamboo (food). This allows the panda to get maximum nutrients from the bamboo ant other food sources. Pandas also migrate down the mountains to stay warm during the winter. To communicate they leave behind scent marks.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNxx8jVEm3I]]> 2018-01-16 21:11:20 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221890797 Jesse and brock https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221890812 white tiger-There fur color helps them stay camouflage when hunting.A external trait is there claws.There claws help them because when there killing there pray it makes it easier to kill it.]]> 2018-01-16 21:11:24 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221890812 Gabby and Annabelle https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221892445 Rat:
A rat is yet another animal who belongs to the rodent family. They have two sets of long teeth on the lower and upper jaw to help thoroughly chew their food so that they don't choke on it, which is VERY easy for a rat to do!! This is because rats do not have a present gag reflex. This results in them not being able to regurgitate or vomit any food they may be choking on! Although the long teeth may look unpleasing, just know that those teeth is what's keeping that rat from choking and dying!]]> 2018-01-16 21:17:05 UTC https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221892445 Anthony https://padlet.com/dwhite281/w8nx9x8vq9qs/wish/221892546 Leopard-
The leopard has a tail that helps it keep it's balance while running at a fast pace, like a cheetah.
