2. - Every animal has its own environment where
it lives in.
Example
Polar bears live in the Arctic. Snakes live in the desert.
In order to survive in their environment, they have to
behave in a special way.
3. Adaptation
It’s the behavior or the
structure(body part) that
helps a living thing
“animal” to survive in its
environment
5. “Animals hide by blending in their environment”
Camouflage
-Many animals adapt to live in their environment by
“camouflage”.
-They hide & protect themselves from being eaten
by other animals by blending in their environment .
-Other animals use camouflage to help them not to
be noticed so that they can hunt their preys easily.
6. “Chameleons”
- They blend in their
environment by
Camouflage to hide
from their predators.
(They color themselves
with the same color of
their environment)
Examples
7. “Polar bears”
- Polar bear’s white fur
helps it to blend with
the ice & snow to make
it easy for them to hunt
the seal without being
seen.
8. “Snakes”
- Snakes also adapt in
their environment by
camouflage, they hide
from eagles by blending
in the rocks & sand, and
also to make easier for
them to hunt their preys.
9. “Owls”
-Owls also can adapt by
camouflage inside the
trees
-It make it easier for
them to hunt their preys
without being seen.
10. “Lions”
- Lions also blend in
their environment
using camouflage to
hunt their preys without
being seen.
11. - Desert is a very tough environment to live in.
- So plants & animals living in the desert
should adapt to survive in it.
Adaptation in the desert
12. - Cactus & Mesquite trees are desert plants.
Have roots that spread far to absorb rainwater.
Have stems that store water.
Have spines to protect plants from being eaten
by animals.
Adaptation of plants
13. - Some animals are nocturnal they are
active only at night “they sleep during the day”
Bats & Snakes
Adaptation of animals
Examples
14. - Other desert animals adapt to the desert by
having long ears to cool themselves in the
hot weather.
Examples
Jack rabbits
15. -Some animals imitate another in color or
shape, like : stone fish.
“It looks exactly like the stones of the Ocean, so it’s
very hard to notice it & that helps it to survive
in its ecosystem”
Adaptation Of animals in the forests
This is called: Mimicry
16. - Other animals go to a very deep sleep during
the winter, when they couldn’t find their food,
Like: Dormouse & Bears.
This is called: Hibernation
17. - Other animals like: Skunks spray a stinky
smell when a predator comes close to them.
18. - Some animals move from their ecosystem to
another ecosystem in the winter “ When the
weather gets very cold”
- Example:
Whales
Salmon fish
Birds
Adaptation Of animals in the Ocean
This is called: Migration
19. - Other Ocean animals have different ways of
adaptation like: Angler fish
“Has a growth above its head that lights up”
20. Adaptation Of animals in the Wetland
Walking catfish
can use its fins to
move from a dry
land to a body of
water.
