A defense adaptation is a certain ability that an animal can use to protect itself form predators.

Ex: Pocupines have pointy quills to protect it from being eaten.

Ex: Puffer fish can blow themselves up to make themselves look bigger and scare away other fish that want to make them dinner.

What is structural adaptation in which one organism copies the appearance of another organism?

Structural adaptation where one organism mimics the appearance of another is known as mimicry. This adaptation can provide benefits such as protection from predators or increased success in reproduction. For example, some harmless species may mimic the coloration of toxic species to avoid being eaten. This evolutionary strategy enhances survival by allowing the mimic to benefit from the protection associated with the model organism.
