What are the three types of adaptation?

Adaptation is a process where a population becomes better suited to survive in it's environment. The three types of adaption are as follows: Morphological Adaptation: The actual structure of an animal's body parts that adapts to its environment. For example, birds have certain beaks that allow them to adapt to the types of foods they eat. Behavioral Adaptation: This can be passed along through genetics. Good examples are birds flying south for winter or squirrels nesting. Physiological Adaptation: This describes how the body works and adapts. For example, it could be that cows have specific digestive procedures to help digest the grass and food they eat. A change in the animal's diet can lead to a physiological adaptation.


What is an example of sensory adaptation?

What is lemon grass' adaptation to the savanna?

Lemon grass has adapted to the savanna by developing long, narrow leaves that help to minimize water loss through transpiration. Its deep root system allows it to access water stored in the ground during the dry season. Additionally, the strong aroma of lemon grass can act as a natural repellent against herbivores in the savanna ecosystem.
