For Thermoregulatory adaptations:
Structural
- Scales and padded feet protect and prevent it from the heat
- Their great climbing ability is useful to escaping predators and sun baking.
Physiological
- Changing tint- from a light brown to dark brown. The light brown will abosrb less light (less heat) and the dark brown will absorb more light (more heat)
- Panting, the water from their saliva will evaporate and thus cool them down.
Behavioural
- Sun baking provides absorption of heat and thus activates cells and enzymes needed for daily activity
- Burrowing underground to escape extreme heat
- When ambient temperatures' are cool such as in the morning, basking in the sun increases body temperature and altering its body position by exposing more or less of its body surface to the sun further assists in reaching the required temperature.
-When ambient temperatures are high the lizard may seek the shade of a tree or retreat into a burrow to avoid overheating.
