Animals adaptationZhuyuan Primary SchoolClass6 Grade5 Eric JiangLook at this picture.It is an owl.We can see the following facts about owls:Owls eyes are useful for seeing well at night;Their feathers have soft edges that allow them to fly silently;Owls sharp claws are useful for hunting.Each of these things is an adaptation.An adaptation is a characteristic that helps a living thing survive.Physical AdaptationsSome adaptations have to do with an animals body or a plants structure.These are Physical Adaptations.For example,the thick,waxy stem of a cactus allows the plant to store water in the desert.Behavioral AdaptationsSome adaptations have to do with an animals acts or behaves.These are Behavioral Adaptations.For example,Most birds migrate to find food and a place to lay eggs.Lets see some adaptations and answer what kinds of adaptations they are.1.The porcupine uses its quills for defense.They are both physical adaptations.2.A turtles shell protects it from being eating by other animals.1.Almost all owls hunt at night.They are both behavioral adaptations.2.Animals hibernate to conserve energy and avoid a food shortage.Each living thing uses its adaptations for survival.Can you find some and share with me?Thank you！
