How do animals and plants adapt to climate changes?

Adaptation is a feature that helps the plant or animal to survive in a particular habitat. In deserts plants store water in stems and leaves to survive in the hot and dry climate, example - cactus. Plants in places where there is heavy rainfall have leaves with tips that helps the water to run off. They have waxy smooth leaves that also help the water drop off the leaves. Animals also have their own methods to adapt to habitats. The camel has a hump which stores water to help it survive in desert conditions. They have long eye lashes to keep the sand out. The polar bears have thick layer of fat under their skin and thick fur to help them stay warm. They have wide paws with claws to help them walk on the snow. There are many adaptions that help plants and animals to survive in their habitat.
