An example of a physical adaptation is the bill of a platypus. The platypus's bill has sensitive electroreceptors which pick up tiny nerve and electrical impulses generated by crustaceans and other animals that inhabit the bottom of the creek or river. The platypus then uses its bill to shovel away the dirt, and find the food. It does not have teeth, but hard bony plates which it uses to grind the food.
Physical and behavioral adaptations
Physical adaptations are changes to a species' bodies or physiology that improve survivability. Behavioral adaptations are changes to the way animals act that benefit them. For example, some lizards develop thicker skin (physical adaptation), while on hot sand, some lizards will hop/skip alternate pairs of feet to keep them cool (behavioral adaptation).
both
No animal can survive without both. Even having legs is a physical adaptation. If an animal had no behavioral adaptations, it would just sit in one place and die of starvation. So jackrabbits have both physical and behavioral adaptations.
Yes, adaptations can manifest as physical characteristics that enhance an organism's survival and reproduction in a particular environment. These physical traits are typically the result of genetic changes that confer a survival advantage. Complex behaviors can also be adaptations, as they help organisms interact with their environment and increase their fitness. Both physical characteristics and behaviors can be shaped by natural selection.
They're adaptations are their strips because it helps them blend in with their group or pack.
There are actually quite a few physical adaptations that the electric eel has taken on. They have developed a very slippery skin for example to move through the water.
cute lazy lol
web feet are better to swim
The classic example of adaptations is the finches living in the Galapagos Islands.
Because the animals that live in the specific area, have different adaptations for each geographical area. For example, mice live in the desert and not in Alaska, because of their adaptations. Telling where an animal lives also tells the geography of the area? Does that make sense?
They swim in orchids
