This document discusses various adaptations that help organisms survive and reproduce in their environments. It defines adaptations as inherited characteristics that increase an organism's chances of surviving long enough to reproduce. Adaptations can be structural, like camouflage colors, or behavioral, such as migration. Structural adaptations include physical traits like stripes that help with camouflage or mimicry. Behavioral adaptations are instincts and learned behaviors, including hibernation, living in groups, and migration. Plants also have adaptations, such as thorns for protection, seeds for dispersal, and tropisms or dormancy to respond to environmental stimuli. Adaptations increase organisms' fitness and chances of surviving and passing on their genes.
This Power Point Presentation is designed to explain Mendel's experiment on hybridization and dihybrid cross which considers inheritance of two traits at a time and to know whether they are inherited independently or are influenced by each other and also about Law of Independent assortment

Pointillism Art is the practice of applying small dots of colour to a surface so that from a distance they visually blend together to make a picture. The technique is associated with Georges Seurat, and his student, Paul Signac, who both founded Neo-Impressionism. Fun activity to try with junior grades.

The colour wheel is made up of three primary colours (red, yellow and blue), three secondary colours (orange, green and violet) and six tertiary colours (red-orange, yellow-orange, yellow-green, blue-green, blue-violet and red-violet). There are also complementary colours (e.g., red and green, yellow and purple, and blue and orange). This slideshow provides students with a small and concise intro to colour theory.

What is Zones of Regulations? The Zones of Regulation is a range of activities to help a student develop skills in the area of self-regulation. The various ways students feel and the states of alertness they experience are categorized into four coloured zones: Red, Yellow, Green, and Blue. Well-regulated students are able to be in the appropriate zone at the appropriate time.
The aim is to have all students in the green zone throughout the day.
Zones of Regulation - A Google Slides Presentation that provides an overview of the 4 zones and emotions in each zone. It also highlights strategies that students could use to move themselves to the Green zone.

2. Inherited Characteristics
Why do tigers have stripes?
Why are bullfrogs green on the back and white
on the belly?
Why do giraffes have such a long neck?
Why do geese fly south for the winter?
Why do waterlilies float?
Why do some plants bear fruit?
All of these questions deal with
adaptations!!!
3. What are adaptations?
Adaptations – an inherited characteristic that helps
an organism to survive long enough to reproduce
more successfully in its changing environment and
can either be structural or behavioral.
5. Structural Adaptations
Definition: Actual body parts or coloration that
help an organism survive in their environment.
EX: camouflage, mimicry, bent hind legs, sharp
teeth and claws, body structures.
6. Behavioral Adaptations
• Definition: Ways an organism act to help
them survive in their environment.
• EX: Migration, hibernation, warning calls,
mating dances, hunting in packs.
15. We have been looking at structural adaptations
of animals. ADAPTATIONS ON THE BODY,
but animals can also have behavioral
adaptations. This type of adaptation cannot be
seen on the body. It is the way an animal reacts
or behaves in certain situations. In other
words: INSTINCTS
16. In simple animals, behavior is governed almost
entirely by instinct, meaning that it is pre-
programmed by an animal's genes. In more
complex animals, instinctive behavior is often
modified by learning, producing more-flexible
responses to the outside world.
17. Behavioral Adaptations
1. Migration - seasonal or periodic
movement of animals in response to
changes in climate or food availability, or
to ensure reproduction.
Migration most commonly involves
movement from one area to another and
then back again.
Examples: geese, whales, salmon,
Monarch butterflies
18. Behavioral Adaptations
2. Hibernation – adaptive winter survival
technique where animal becomes inactive
and all body processes slow down.
In cold weather most animals must eat large
quantities of food to obtain the energy
needed to carry on normal body activities.
Examples: bears, chipmunks,
squirrels, bats,
19. Behavioral Adaptations
3. Living in a Group – more
eyes in a group to watch
out for prey or predator,
protection Examples: fish,
wildebeest,
walruses,
lions
20. Behavioral Adaptations
4. Tool Use - any
object
manipulated by an
animal in order to
perform a specific
task. (monkeys, otters,
birds)
5. Playing Dead - By pretending
that they are dead, some animals
escape bodily harm. (snakes,
possums)
22. PLANT ADAPTATIONS
All living things adapt is a characteristic of life.
All 6 kingdoms adapt. Animals are not the only
organisms to adapt.
Structural Plant Adaptations
1. Structures - adaptations on the body:
2. Seeds – all seeds have adaptation to
better enable it to survive long enough
to plant itself and grow.
holdfasts, empty space for water storage, catch
animals for minerals, tallness, heartiness, thorns,
flexibility, floatation devices
23. Plant Adaptations
Protection – thorns, bad taste, poison,
coloration, spikes
Obtaining Food – All plants do
photosynthesis and make glucose in their
leaves. The larger the leaves the more
Sun they can capture.
31. Plant REPRODUCTION (Pollination)
Male – Stamen
Top of stamen is the anther,
pollen made in the anther.
Female – Pistil
Ovule (egg) – becomes a
seed.
Ovary – becomes fruit.
Fertilization – occurs when the pollen from the anther is
carried to the pistil by animals. The sperm(pollen) falls
down the style to the egg and fertilizes the egg.
32.
33. PLANT BEHAVIORS
Plants not only have structural adaptations;
they have behaviors that help them to survive in
their environment.
Tropism: movement of a plant toward or away
from a stimulus. Toward is called positive, away
is called negative.
34. Example 1-Phototropism
• When the plant senses light and the shoots
(stems & leaves) grow toward the light
source.
• This is a positive tropism because the plant
is growing toward the stimulus.
35. Example 2-Gravitropism
• When growth of a plant changes in
response to direction of gravity.
Shoots (stems & leaves)
have a negative
Gravitropism
because they grow in the
opposite direction of the
force of gravity.
Roots mostly have positive gravi-
tropism because they grow toward
the force of gravity (downward).
36. Ex: gravitropism – responding to gravity
Stems grow up
(negative)
Roots grow
down
(positive)
37. PLANT BEHAVIORALADAPTATIONS
DORMANCY - A state of rest or inactivity.
Many plants go dormant in the winter. Fall is the time of
year when plants are preparing for dormancy.
Why do trees
loose their leaves
in the fall?
What other types of
plants go dormant in the
winter?
38. DORMANCY
• Seasonal Changes in Trees to survive
winter. All trees lose their leaves at some
point. Stop taking in water so the xylem
will not freeze.
• Trees like pines and holly lose their leaves
all through out the year. They are called
evergreens.
Pines
Holly
