Adaptation in ten flora and fauna?

Answer 1

There are many things that determine how flora and fauna will adapt to their environment. For example, the narrower the niche (how a species fits in to it's environment), the less likely that animal will be able to adapt if, let's say, in several million years, Florida becomes a frozen tundra because of moving plate tectonics (which can happen) (ex. of narrow niche - Panda, Polar Bear; ex. of broad niche - Cockaroach, Lizard). Also, the faster a species reproduces is an important factor in how well that species will adapt to changing environments. For example, if Florida becomes a tundra, who do you think will survive by giving their offspring availability to their species gene pool (where all the species accumulated genes are held) faster; the rabbits, or the bears? The answer would probably be the rabbits (even though the bears might survive as well, the rabbits will thrive better).

Answer 2

1. In plants, adaptation can involve changes in leaf shape and color to maximize sunlight absorption for photosynthesis.
2. Animals like the polar bear have adapted with white fur and a thick layer of fat to survive in cold Arctic environments.
3. Camouflage is a common adaptation in both plants and animals to blend in with their surroundings and avoid predators.
4. Cacti have evolved to store water in their tissues and have spines to reduce water loss in arid environments.
5. Birds have adapted different beak shapes and sizes based on their diets, like long, thin beaks for insect-eating birds or thick, sturdy beaks for seed-eating birds.
