Name - Aadarsh Verma Class - VI A Subject - Biology Topic - Adaptation in Plants & Animals

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I would like to express my special thanks of gratitude to my teacher Mrs.Geetanjali Tandon who gave me the golden opportunity to do this wonderful project of Biology on “ ADAPTATION IN PLANTS AND ANIMALS ”,who also helped in completing my project. I came to know so many new things & facts. I am really thankful to her. Secondly I would also like to thank my parents, friends, siblings who helped me in finalizing the project in the little time frame.

ADAPTATIONS IN PLANTS AND ANIMALS CLICK

Adaptation can be defined as any heritable trait that helps an organism, such as a plant or animal, survive and reproduce in its environment. A change in structure, function, or behavior by which a species or individual improves its chance of survival in a specific environment is called adaptation. The Natural surroundings where an organism live is called a habitat.Habitat provides all things necessary for surviving which are food, shelter and proper climate conditions.



Adaptations in Plants : Based on the amount of water present in the habitat, plants are divided into 3 categories : ❏ Hydrophats (aquatic plants) - live in water Example = Hydrilla ❏ Mesophytes - that require a sufficient amount of water to live on land Example = Herbs ❏ Xerophytes - live in hot and dry land Example = Cacti

❏ Mountainous Plants - live in mountains Example = Spruce ❏ Aerial Plants - plants that do not have underground root systems; instead, they are located in areas above the ground Example = Orchids P.T.O

Adaptations in Animals : Types of Adaptations in Different Animals are: ❏ Terrestrial Animals (land animals) - live on land Example = Cow and Tiger ❏ Aquatic Animals - live in water Example = StarFish ❏ Ambhibian - lives in both land and water Example = Frog and Turtle ❏ Aerial Animals - animals which can fly in the air Example = Sparrow and Bat

ADAPTATION IN DESERT ANIMAL ( CAMEL ) A camel is adapted to the the desert while it has the following adaptations Fat is stored in their humps and it acts as the food reserve.It has long legs to keep away from hot sand, Broad padded feet to walk easily on sand without sinking in it. It has the long and bushy eyebrows to protect the eyes from the hot sand. More = https://www.nhm.ac.uk/discover/ho w-do-camels-survive-in-deserts.html

ADAPTATION IN MOUNTAIN ANIMALS ( Mountain GOAT ) Their body is covered with thick fur to protect them from the cold. They also have a thick layer of fat under the skin for insulation and protection from cold. Mountain goats have strong hooves that help them climb the rocky slopes of the mountains. They have small ears and nose to reduce heat loss from the body.
