Answer:
1. Some fish like stargazer fish hide in rocks and sand to catch prey; some paralyze other fishes or some other ocean animal for safety and food, some like remora fish attach to larger fishes like sharks for protection and food.
2. Some desert animals like kangaroo rats can survive their whole lives without drinking water as they obtain all the moisture they need from the food in their diets.
3. Emperor penguins found in Antarctica form large, ever-moving huddles that allow them to share body warmth, and shelters them from the cold wind.
4. The sloth, an animal found in treetops uses camouflage and moves very slowly to make it difficult for predators to spot.
Explanation:
Adaptation refers to characteristics that help an organismmto be better suited for survival in their environment. Some adaptations may be physical such as the possession of limbs for movement by some animals, physiological such as production of toxins by some plants to avoid being eaten, or behavioural such as building a nest by birds
1. Fishes are animals that live in the ocean. Behavioural adaptations are the way different fish act to survive. Some fish like stargazer fish hide in rocks and sand to catch prey, some paralyze other fishes or some other ocean animal for safety and food, some fish like remora attach to larger fishes like sharks for protection and food.
2. Animals from the desert adapt to the hot desert environment by only coming out at night while hiding in burrows during the day. Some desert animals like kangaroo rats can survive their whole lives without drinking water as they obtain all the moisture they need from the food in their diets.
3. Antarctica is found in the world's coldest region, the South pole. Animals found in this region show various adaptations in order to survive the extreme cold conditions. Antarctic animals have unique behavioural adaptations that help them survive the harsh winter. Emperor penguins found in Antarctica form large, ever-moving huddles that allow them to share body warmth, and shelters them from the cold wind.
4. The rainforests are known for plenty of rainfall, abundance of animal and plant life. Due to these unique characteristics of the rainforests, animals have learnt to survive due to the competition for food and abundance of predators. The sloth, an animal found in treetops uses camouflage and moves very slowly to make it difficult for predators to spot.
