Why are animals and plants living in the same environment have so much different adaptations for example leaves?
A single environment, such as a tropical jungle, has a great many different niches within it. Niches mainly have to do with different kinds of food that are available, so you get specialist fruit eaters, or insect eaters, or animal eaters, or grass eaters, etc., each being very good at their particular specialty. A niche can involve other factors than food, particularly when talking about plants which do not eat, although they do absorb nutrients. Since taller plants get more direct sunlight than shorter plants, because the shadows of the taller plants act to shade the shorter plants, we then get plants that are adapted to more sunlight, and plants that are adapted to less. Some plants are adapted to support their own weight, and others are parasitic, and use other plants to support their weight. There are so many different adaptations that I can only hint at the variety that exists, unless I turn this answer into a book.

What does behavioral adaptations mean?
Behavioural adaptations are different from structural adaptations because they are particular ways an animal behaves in order to help it adapt to its environment. For example, the kiwi of New Zealand is nocturnal, because most of its non-native predators are diurnal. Another example is how some desert animals burrow deep where they can keep cool during the day and warm during winter nights.
What do populations share their environment with?
With different kind of animals example like birds with birds
Why are animals a part of physical geography?
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?
What are behaviral adaptations?
Behavioral adaptations are adaptations that something or someone makes. They are behavioral so that means that is about how you act. for example, if someone has problems at home then they will begin to act depressed. However if you are talking about animals, it will be pretty hard to tell which animals have behavioral adaptations. Unless of course you study animals. But an example in a dog would be that if he is left alone every day, he might try to run away at a place where he or she can have company. Hope this helped you and if it didn't ask again, but be more specific so you will get a better answer. :):)
How animals supports structure?
Animals have morphological and physiological adaptations to their environment that are essential for their survival. We need to understand these adaptations to understand how they function in their particular environment, and how they might respond to environmental challenges such as climate change. Environmental Physiology Understanding the physiological adaptations of animals to their environment involves study of the various physiological systems involved, and this is facilitated by comparing and contrasting various species from differing environments. It is important that we understand "how animals work" in their natural environment, particularly because of the environmental threats from human impacts, such as climate change. Comparative Morphology The structure of animals is inextricably linked to their function, and comparative morphology provides a structural framework for understanding the various adaptations of animals to their environment. Comparative morphology is a powerful tool for understanding how the structure and functioning of animals has changed and will change over time and in response to environmental modifications. Such adaptations are best exemplified by studies of groups in challenged or extreme environments such as, for example, bats and marine snakes. Climate Change Adaptation Understanding the impact of climate change is a pressing concern for the management of many animals. We are interested in using a mechanistic understanding of the physiology of affected animals to predict species responses to changing thermal and hydric environments, and to develop spatially-explicit models to guide management decisions.

What are five adaptations of a pika?
The pike has had so many adaptations. It's long body for example is an adaptation it has to its environment.
Is a desert an environment?
yes it is an environment because it has animals and plants for example: Cati and many others
What does adaptations to the environment mean?
Adapting to a new environment means to changeto live. A Chameleon, for example, adapts to its desert environment by changing colors, so it can blend in to its surroundings so its predators wont see it.
What are some adaptations of plants and animals in the forest?
There many plants and animals that have adapted to their environments. Humming birds for example have developed tube-like mouths to eat.
How are physical and behavioral adaptations helpful to animals?
Behavioral adaptations are what living things do to survive. Behavioral adaptation is important because it helps living things survive their situation, it also helps to teach younger generations to do the same.
What is an example of seed disreputably animals?
Animals that look odd and different from other animals.
Physical and behavioral adaptations help animals to survive?
Behavior is someone an adaptation. Different generations of animals have had to undergo different situations in life where they would need certain behaviors to survive. For example, animals have to adapt to their surrounding environment. Say the temperature drops and is colder one year, then the animal would have to adapt to that in order to stay warm and survive. Or, if the food source is getting slimmer for an animal, they have to adapt in order to find maybe different food just to survive. Its the same with behavior, if an animal is picked on by its prey, its going to adapt to that situation and either run away or do something to scare off the prey the next time it comes around.
