Animals adapt to their environments in order to survive. Polar bears live in the Arctic and snakes live in the desert, requiring different behaviors. Desert plants and animals must also adapt to survive in the harsh desert climate through adaptations like camouflage, mimicry, or being nocturnal. Desert cacti and trees have developed water-storing stems and roots that spread far to absorb rainwater, and spines to protect themselves from animals.

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.

5. - Desert is a very tough environment to live in.
- So plants & animals living in the desert
