These thorns could be used to repel insects from eating away at the branches and then leaves, in order to survive.  ]]> 2017-05-04 17:53:42 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170014516 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170017774 9During my joyful walk around the neighbourhood, I noticed a couple of interesting things. Here is an example of a behavioural daptation. This is because the bee relies on these flowers in order to produce honey. ]]> 2017-05-04 18:03:04 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170017774 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170069243 Today in class we went on a nature walk to look for different adaptations in our neighbourhood. On our walk I found this plant with thrones. Thornes are a physiological adaptation which help protect the plant from anything that wants to harming it, such as insects or animal. ]]> 2017-05-04 23:17:29 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170069243 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170085247 Through out the nature walk we had during our science class, I have notice Tulips in some people's gardens, and I was very intrigued and curious to find out, it's adaptation to this world. I searched and I found out that, Tulips have this waxy, somewhat stiff petals of tulips, in which are good protection from cold, drying winds for the stamens and pistils. And it is a structural adaptation.]]> 2017-05-05 02:09:52 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170085247 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170096789 During our walk I was mainly looking for some sort if plants that have adapted to repel insects. I managed to find poison ivy. This is a mixture of a behavioural and structural adaptations. It grows thorns to prevent it from being picked, or eaten and it also contains a poison that can cause itching, rashes etc.]]> 2017-05-05 04:33:05 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170096789 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170097247 While walking around the neighbourhood, I was able to find a large bee and take a picture of it. This picture of the bee allowed me to witness both a structural and behavioural adaption. The structural adaptation is the bees yellow strips. These strips protect the bee from predators. The behavioural adaptation is the bee eating nectar. It depends on the flowers for its survival. ]]> 2017-05-05 04:42:53 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170097247 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170098633 2017-05-05 05:08:48 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170098633 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170098672 On the neighbourhood walk, I noticed this plant which has thorny leaves.  This is a structural adaptation. It is probably meant to keep away animals wanting to consume the leaves.  ]]> 2017-05-05 05:09:18 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170098672 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170099146 On our walk, I saw that this tree had very long roots. This is a structural adaptation. The tree has these long roots in order to store and collect as much water + nutrients that the tree needs to survive. The roots also help keep the tree in place.]]> 2017-05-05 05:21:12 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170099146 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170100646 2017-05-05 05:49:01 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170100646 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170100741 During our nature walk, I noticed how next to the sidewalk there was a row of trees- some with no big roots and some with big roots. This tree I noticed was one of the few that had big roots. This is a structural adaptation, as the roots are necessary for the trees survival, with their ability to go deep into the ground to collect water and nutrients. ⬇️⬇⬇️]]> 2017-05-05 05:49:56 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170100741 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170242101 During our nature walk I noticed how these grasses had grown taller than ones around it. I think this is an example of a structural adaptation because I think it did that so it could reach the sun light and perceptation faster ]]> 2017-05-05 17:45:49 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170242101 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170242682 On the nature walk the beautiful bright, vibrant colours of the tulips stood out to me. I Later found out that the bright colour of the flower is a structural adaptation, which is used to attract pollinating insects that help tulips reproduce. 🌷🌷🌞🌞]]> 2017-05-05 17:48:06 UTC https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170242682 https://padlet.com/tessgardiner1/zqd9gppzohvy/wish/170244992 This is a structural adaptation.

This is an example of a behavioural adaptation. It was a beautiful thing to see!
